We did it! We started homeschooling last month and so far it has been successful. The kids are much more disciplined at home and more willing to learn.

Saw my brother
23 months ago
I went to my brother’s house for Thanksgiving and had a great time! I hadn’t seen him for three years. Also saw my sister on the way home. I MUST make it a priority to see my family more often. The kids are old enough that they travel much better now and there are no more excuses.
Too overwhelming at this time

We’ve decided that we just can’t face the daunting task of raising this much money while changing jobs and moving all a the same time. $6000 is an enormous amount of money to us (we live in rural Arkansas). Maybe we can do this in the future or better yet, take the whole family on a nice trip.
