Being Schooled

It's a quiet night here. We've had dinner. The kitchen is mostly cleaned up. And the kids are playing school...

Michaela is the teacher. Christian is doing his (actual) homework. And I had a brilliant revelation while watching them.

Michaela needs to teach Eliana everything that she herself is supposed to be learning. She loves to be in the teacher role. So, there you go. And just think...Eliana will be ready for middle school by the end of the summer.

Wait. Maybe I need to rethink this idea...

Yep. Another reason I don't homeschool : my inherent laziness and hatred of math and science would only be able to be overcome with the first kid. (and probably not even then) She would have had to be responsible for the rest.
