After a 5 week break from school for illness, winter break and a week away, Nathan (3) went back to his pre school, and within 3 days was crying, clingy, hitting his brothers, exhausted and starting to "forget" things he had taught himself in terms of reading and maths over the 5 week break.
It was enough evidence for DH to finally agree that he doesn't have to finish off the year and can end this term and then stay home with us.
I am relieved, excited, ecstatically happy that we can finally just get going with homeschooling for everyone now.
And I just had to share again that as parents you really do need to go with your gut and do what's best for your children. Because, personally now, I refuse point blank to see my boys unhappy and frustrated when I can so easily "fix" this one thing.
So excited and had to share where it will be fully understood!
