I really related to your post about education today. And I totally relate to so much of what you wrote! I'm a homeschool mom of two sons (now in college; we home educated through grade 12). Both my boys hated busy work, and especially coloring! I'm sure there must be value in it somewhere, but we haven't discovered it yet! Hang in there. . .you'll find the pathway best for your kiddos. From one mom to another, I wish you success and a smooth journey. <BR/><BR/>LaTeaDah<BR/>http://www.gracioushospitality.blogspot.comLa Tea Dahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03138624485398178242noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20334658.post-1148312393209832422006-05-22T08:39:00.000-07:002006-05-22T08:39:00.000-07:00Hi Shellie,I was thinking about you yesterday. Re...Hi Shellie,<BR/>I was thinking about you yesterday. Read an article in our newspaper about changing dress styles there -- shorter coats, hair not completely covered -- and it reminded me of what you described to us about clothes.<BR/>Jeanne Jeannehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06597301644404678019noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20334658.post-1147664437002946322006-05-14T20:40:00.000-07:002006-05-14T20:40:00.000-07:00We homeschooled 17 years !

You really can control so much of what they learn and maintain a deep enthusiasm for learning. <BR/>Hope things look brighter soon on the apartment side of things.Pattyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08505042214124811641noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20334658.post-1147640692174569862006-05-14T14:04:00.000-07:002006-05-14T14:04:00.000-07:00Shellie-It is so interesting to read about your li...Shellie-<BR/><BR/>It is so interesting to read about your life in Iran. A cousin of mine is also Muslim and was married to a man and living in Oman. Unfortunately, their relationship has ended, but the courts have awarded her custody of their three children and she will remain a practicing Muslim American in Oman. Such a different way of life!<BR/><BR/>On a quilty note, I think it is great that your son has taken an interest!Cathihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16037759700270046024noreply@blogger.com
