According to Marshall, there is bright side to schooling at home. He said, “At least there’s no homework, because it’s all home work now.”
But neither kid has been keeping up with the work. Livia’s teacher has e-mailed me several times over missing assignments, and Marshall’s teacher called us today. The homeschooling routine is still new, so I’m cutting the kids some slack for the moment. I hope they’ll do a better job staying on top of the workload when they’ve had a little more time to adjust.
