Sorry for the post overload, people. Two posts in one day is usually not my style (or speed).
“When we started homeschooling, I felt as if I tucked a child under each arm and jumped off a cliff. Imagine my surprise to discover we had wings!” -Maura Seger
Top that! I love that quote!
Happy homeschooling!

reminds me of one of my favorites (‘ve got this on a piece of “driftwood” I have no idea where I picked it up!)
“Faith is kowing that if you must step off a cliff, either a step will appear or you will be taught how to fly.”
Heather (Sand Sea and School) says
I love that quote too, Heather! You sent it to me when first made the decision to homeschool, and I have treasured it every since!
Heres Mine:
“If the schools were perfect, I would still homeschool my children–because it isn’t about school. It’s about families taking their children back and educating them as they see best. It’s about giving birth to a child and loving that child enough to want to nurture him and be a part of his life until he no longer needs you. It is the natural thing to do. School is only a substitute for the real thing.” –Kathleen McCurdy
So true!

Thanks MBR. 🙂 That is a great quote, too. I collect quotes and have them coming out of my earlobes. 😉
Hather – Oooo. I like that one, too. You can find a whole slew of really great home-education related quotes such as that in “Educating the WholeHearted” child. Have I ever told you that it is my favorite home education book for the moment? Has been for a year or so. I love it!!!!
Fatty – I got that quote from a e-loop I was on in 2002. 🙂
Lisa, Devildogwife, & Halfmoon Girl – Glad you liked it! 😉
