Goodbye public school

Hayden has his last day of public school in April. We said goodbye. No more morning routines. No more rushing out the door. No more fighting to get up and get ready. No more missing Hayden all day. No more homework for 5 hours at night. No more tears. No more sweat. No more frustrations. No more bullying. No more anxiety. No more stress. 

We have replaced it with early morning family scripture study. 

Lazy learning days at home. 

Some days staying in pj's all day. 

Schooling done by noon. More learning. Less stress. More knowledge. Less busywork. More joy. Less frustration. More peace. 

I'm grateful for the good teachers in Hayden's life. I'm grateful too that educators were honest and told us homeschooling would be better for Hayden. 

He is improving. He is happier. He is less stressed. And he is so grateful to be home that so far no fighting with me but willingness to learn and grow.
