Our home school group had a back to school kick-off last Friday. We met at a local park and everyone brought snacks to share. Some families also brought activities for the kids. There was face painting, cupcake decorating, and homemade ice cream. There are about 10 kindergarten/1st grade boys, and Sam is getting to know them. Boys bond quickly over sticks and rocks.
I'm so thankful we have an active homeschool group because Sam has already expressed a desire to go to school like all his friends at church. He is sure he's missing out on something when he hears them talk about going to school and recess. The home school group meets every week, and I think that will help as a way to play with other kids.
Sam wants to learn how to read, but I told him he has to learn all his letters first. We are trying real hard this week, but letter H trips him up everytime!

Love homeschooling....we officially started this past Monday. Love it!!!!
It sounds like he is doing just fine! Until this year my middle son has always wanted to go to "real school", but now says he'd rather be home... huge progress!
Looking forward to seeing you next weekend...
