The WHY 

Children are a blessing. Teaching is a blessing. The opportunity to fuse the two is the greatest gift. 


Common Questions...

You really stay at home with your kids, all day, and teach?

Heck yeah I do! Absolutely!  Don't misunderstand, there are definitely difficult days and many times that I question if we're getting it right! The good news is that those days are put in a chokehold by an opportunity to tally days, memories, and ultimately soak up time that might otherwise seem to slip away.

Are you worried the kids might fall behind? And what about the requirements, curriculum, documentation, etc.?

I guess that depends on the day! No, not really. Homeschool legalities aren't really a hindrance for us. Ultimately it's make sure they're not dumb right? And periodically, show us. Honestly, there is so much content available and there are social media groups galore where someone is chomping at the bit to tell you how to do it...I mean, help. 

Your a dude...the dad...what about work, income, providing for your family?

I'd start my answer by saying that it isn't 1985, and thank goodness for that! I do work part time though, and we have found that to be successful enough to supplement my wife's killer income. She busts her tail and we couldn't be more grateful for her career that allows us to eat steak here and there. However, I do battle the intrinsic paternal inclination to act in lead at times, but luckily all three of my girls keep me in check and remind me who is really in charge!
