Join us as we share with you the things we don’t love about homeschooling! Of course there’s so much we love about this choice we’ve made and the life we have all created, but it’s time to share some of the not so fantastic parts and hopefully help you feel less alone. The positives outweigh the negative, but it’s certainly not all butterflies and rainbows!
