First Week of school is done!

This week has been so incredibly long, it started with me hitting the snooze about three times on Monday morning! Whoever said the first day of school is a parent's Christmas obviously never met me because I'd rather sleep than get six kids ready for school. It's funny though, most of our kids got up on their own and were ready before either of us-good job kids! I was really impressed by them, we did have a few meltdowns here and there but for the most part they were ready to take on the world! This is the first time I've ever homeschooled and it was a little overwhelming at first, but as the week has gone on we've gotten into a routine and the only struggle I have now is my kids going through their work way too fast! Luckily, Pinterest is an amazing source and has tons of different homeschooling ideas. Hopefully I can use some of them in the future, but for now we're just getting some of the basics underway and trying to get them fully in the groove of this homeschooling thing. The other thing were struggling with is getting used to our fall schedule, our kids all play fall sports and apparently this is the year is the year for them all to start at the same time! I am so glad Jason was home on Monday because I'm not sure how I'm going to do it this upcoming Monday without losing my mind. Hopefully we all survive and the school year continues going well, I hope everyone who has already started school had an awesome first day and if you haven't started school yet-good luck!
