Ok, I've been busy working full time and building a business outside of our home, but it's time to get back to our journey. Everything I'm doing now is more important than ever to get out there. Maybe I can help a struggling parent going through the same thing.
We have found that a routine of doing school first thing in the morning is the easiest. Everyone is fresh faced and ready to go. Someday's we get started right away, and some days school gets interrupted: the office phone rings, we have to run out to pick up parts because nobody else can, an employee has an issue and needs to speak with me, etc. The trick I've found is to have educational toys and games around for them to play with when I'm busy. That way, they can do what they want and they're still learning.
Today was a quick meeting about the agenda of the day, so the girls kept themselves busy with this great Melissa & Doug magnetic box. Learning to put things together correctly is a skill that is overlooked too often.
