I have been so blessed to be able to stay home with my boys.
One advantage to home schooling is that your child does not need to lose an entire day of learning every time they are not well. Sick enough to stay home and not expose others is not always too sick to learn.
Plus, you can easily salvage those days when they are ill in the morning but perk up in the afternoon.
We only have one more year of schooling. It has been an exciting ride.
