Summer School

Growing up when someone said they were doing summer school I assumed they were dumb.  You know what I am talking about!  You thought the same thing!  Kids did summer school to make sure they passed to next grade!  Then, we moved to college and those who were super motivated did summer school.  You know the people I am talking about....I never fit into either of those categories.  However, for the second summer in a row I find myself doing school!  AND, for the first time I find myself, and my kids, in a position where they will be doing school too.  One of the things I love about homeschooling is the flexibility of your schedule.  I love that we can take family time when needed and focus on other things when needed.  However, this year we had lots of "family" things to tend to.  We have been out of town a lot, taken care of parents and grandparents, and had our fair share of sickness.  Needless to say, I find myself sitting her at the beginning of June hating myself for my kids needing to complete their books still. So, the Skinkle family, minus a few weeks of break time, will be schooling it this summer!  Hopefully this is the first and last time this will happen!
