I'm back to school

I ended my 3 years of homeschooling, and got my daughter into school today.

Getting up early to prepare food, wake up the kid, dress her the school uniform... feels like going back to school myself. Well, I guess I will be doing this till all the kids turn 18? The younger brother and sister also feel excited and wore their school bag on the shoulders.

The transition is smooth, no crying of 'mommy, mommy I want to go home'. I brought the little brother along to check out the area. I left after accompany her for 15 minutes. She was ready to meet all the other small fellow and mingle around.

Why not continuing the homeschooling? Not that the kid cannot follow (in fact she is ahead of schedule). I was the one find hard to concentrate to teach and manage the household, plus the other 2 little ones keeps on demanding for attention.

Well, I'm not so worried now like I used to about educating the kids. Especially after reading 'The Great Mom' (I mentioned earlier in my previous post). May be I should quickly compound the main points and share with you all on my next post. Keep an eye on my next one. *wink*
