Home education quotes and reflections

| October 27, 2005 | Comments (3)

Education is what remains after one has forgotten everything he learned from school.
~ Albert Einstein

=> Thankfully our girls are not in “school”…ha ha hee hee ;-)

The only person who is educated is the one who has learned how to learn and change.
~ Carl Rogers

=> We lay the foundation by giving them resources and research skills, and together we’re all learning and growing as a family. What’s not to love?

Education is not the filling of a pail but the lighting of a fire.
~ W.B. Yeats

=> Through enthusiasm and love, I feel blessed that our girls never get bored of learning!

By educating our girls at home, one amazing thing is how they’re the ones pushing us for more…more books, more projects, more “family time” etc.

And, “family time” to them is doing anything “together as a family”. This is truly amazing, becuase we do everything together as a family…we are inseparable compared to all our friends and family…and yet they want more!

We eat, sing, dance, shop, read, watch movies, play cards (our newest passion: Go Fish, Memory Match, Old Maid & Crazy Eights)…We’re constantly doing art projects, coloring, and we have to make at least 1 meal or dessert a day…this just blows my mind!

Even during “quiet time”, they want us to be with them: playing computer games with them, coloring with them, sitting on our naps while watching TV…really playing with their toys with them.

And, as girls…they never stop talking, asking questions, debating, etc.!

Yet, I still wonder why I’m so exhausted at the end of the day when I only homeschool the girls…
