. . . .One day while lounging on the beach, my beloved husband said, "This is what I want to do everyday. Is it wrong to want to live a life of leisure?" My daughter replied, "Dad, you do live the life of easier." And so we do! Here is a bit from our life of easier.

Why I Homeschool
I homeschool so my kids can learn to love learning.
An excellent reason to homeschool. So many kids who go to public school absolutely hate it. Of course I homeschool, and my son hates math, LOL! Oh well, even that is not perfect.
When I first started to homeschool my children I did without knowing how passionate I would become about/over the love of learning.
I never had that during my childhood, I despised anything that had to with school. But, I never knew that learning was something that you could do outside those four walls without being told, just for pleasures sake.
That sentence says so much! I homeschooled my kids through high school, and as adults they do still have a love of learning! Deb @ LivingMontessoriNow.com
I've written a book on this very subject (that most kids hate school,) and I absolutely recommend homeschooling, among other things. Congrats on being ahead of the curve... as most parents think homeschooling is radical. Your kid will absolutely benefit from your decision! Ryan Teves www.in-defense-of-the-american-teen.com
