The past few weeks, I have had a strong impression that we need to be focusing on character. This is the beauty of homeschooling. Along side math, spelling and science, we can teach them and learn together to be good people. I came across Michelle Duggar's Character Qualities chart. I think we are going to start this in September. I love this! There are 49 qualities. With each quality the opposite of the quality is listed.

The Perks
Year two of homeschooling for us. I am really seeing the benefits and enjoying the freedoms this year.
Perks of year two in homeschooling
We are more organized
I am more flexible
I am more confident in my abilities to teach my children.
We can have a nice ebb and flow. I can really push the kids hard, and get a lot done, and we can take off a week or so when illness creeps in, or we have a busy week.
The boys know what to expect and what is expected of them.
We are busier and busier every passing month.
Keep at it out there. If you have the mindset to homeschool your children, you can do it as long as you have faith. Faith and doubt cannot exist in the mind at the same time, as one will always dispel the other. -- Thomas S. Monson
