    Thank you!

    I never thought I would homeschool. It's not something I was ever familiar with until I moved to Pennsylvania. I have two in Catholic High School and the 4 1/2 year old who will be home this year. I am looking at this as a trial year with hs. The more I learn, the more I love about it.
