Is 35 3rd graders in one room for 6 hours. Yeah that was me today! I was observing for my practicum hours for my education degree and boy was that an eye opener! I was fortunate enough to be in the presence of a really capable teacher and she handled things with a super amount of grace.
I of course had all those old feelings of being drawn in to the classroom to help these kids and found myself offering to come back. These are reasons it is hard for me to commit to homeschooling. I love kids. My kids your kids, any kids. I'm torn, it's a difficult decision, but ultimately I have been entrusted with very specific children. And I think that right now the most important thing I can do is teach and nurture THEM, so that when they are grown I can tackle the rest!
Just some wandering thoughts.....

Those are good random thoughts!
I have been thinking about home schooling my two oldest ones. They love school...and so I don't know if it is a good idea or not?
