So, my mother tried her hand at home-schooling when we were really young - all the mothers at the church were doing it, why not her? I have to say, my mom did great for the few years that she did it - but she also knew her strengths and made the decision early on to put us in public school. I still remember some of those afternoons with mom, though. We would practice violin in the morning, and we would work through these workbooks. I loved the math workbook. Anyhow, there were certain things that my mom would stress. It was very important to her that we hold our pencils correctly. To this day, if I am writing with my pen in my fist, or holding it in the incorrect way, I think of what mom would say if she saw me.
"What are you doing with your pen!" Funny thing is, I'm pretty my sister's and I don't write correctly most of the time. lol. She tried so hard!!
