Mission statement: On this blog we explore why homeschooling can be a better option for children and families than a traditional classroom setting. We'll also explore homeschooling issues in general, educational thoughts, family issues, and some other random stuff.

The crazy Fall season
We have started the crazy soccer season. I'm coaching my son's team. I picked up the roaster last night. We'll start having practices this next week or the week after. My two younger daughters are also on teams and have already been going to soccer practice. With three games each Saturday we will get much less done for the next couple months.

I empathize with you. We had to quit my daughter's club soccer team mid-season last year. One practice a week and a game on Saturday burned us out with the other activities that we had.
We decided our focus would be more on Lego League, Scouts, and Church this year.
I think one of the challenges we face today is that are so many options. Many of them are good things to do, but we can do all of them. So we are forced to pick and choose, and sometimes we try to do more that we can or should do.
My son's team is doing well. We have a boy who has scored about 90% of the goals. But the other boys are all improving. I'm hoping that by the end of the season each of them will have scored at least one goal.
