Hi ladies, I’m glad you like my blog’s makeover!
No, I’m not really an unschooler either… I’m actually finding that we’re naturally leaning toward more structured academic learning time as N and T are getting older, and we’re all good with that.
Thanks for sharing your thoughts.

Thanks for the link! I’m glad to find a Christian homeschooling group, most I find are secular, and most Christian HSers I meet IRL or online are curriculum based.

Also really like the new layout!

Beautifully put (you should share this over there as well. ) I hd a very hard time calling it unschooling for a very long time. Charlotte Mason inspired eclectic/relaxed was what I called it. (The only reason I finally gave in and called it unschooling is because God forced my hand and gave me the domain name–it fell right in my lap. ) It is a good thing God knows what is best for my kids because if I had had my way they would have fought me tooth and nail (and did for some time.)

Oh, love the new look! You’ve been busy, haven’t you?

I am so thankful we can rely on the wisdom God gives us to teach our own families. I’m not an unschooler, but definitely becoming more relaxed. When I stop worrying so much about getting my list of subjects done and enjoy the conversation and questions our days go a lot smoother.

And I like that quote, too! What good is an education if you don’t have love?
