School is underway!

I know! We are so weird! 

Yes, indeed. School is underway and going smoothly.

Here are our "Beginning of the School Year" pictures:

Here they are in age order: 9, 7, 6, and 2-years-old






Knowing that we will be traveling to China to get Samuel at the beginning of the traditional school year, we knew we had to start school early. But, knowing just how hard jet lag and transition are, we decided to begin as soon as possible--to lessen the stress on the other side of the adoption trip.

Just a side note, the adoption trip--with all of its tremendous amounts of stress, sickness, etc.--cannot compare to the transition time coming home. It.is.HARD! Just sayin'.

Goin' in with our eyes wide open!

That's one of the great things about Homeschooling! You can work it into your schedule instead of it being the other way around and worrying about how the kids are going to make up stuff etc. :)
