July 2020

Never in my wildest dreams, did I think that I would be a home school teacher. NEVER! But that is what happened.

I haven’t really blogged and that is in part due to lack of time but also the lack not not exactly knowing what to say either. Do I talk about the facts? We are all living it. Do I talk about school and the challenges.

The reality is very simple, this all sucks. Home School. Not saying goodbye to your friends. The loss of Little League Baseball, YMCA Soccer, summer camps, sleep over with cousins and grandparents. The list goes on and on.

But we are safe.

We are safe and healthy. We are making memories, like me being your Home School teacher.

Has this been easy for any of us, no. Absolutely not, but we have been making it work. We are focusing on the positives now that are coming from this and today, that is all that matters.

But as we get closer to the next school year, there is a lot of discussions on what the kids will do. Go back full time, highly unlikely. Go back maybe 1 – 2 days a week, but wear masks, high possibility, or start online again, which is my ideal answer.

I just don’t know if the kids should go back to school? I don’t know if anyone knows honestly what the right answer is at this point? But, I am prepared to be the Home School teacher of the year for both 2020 and 2021 at this point.

More to come on this and other posts.
