Happy Thanksgiving!

     This week I asked a number of kids why they are thankful for homeschooling. Here are some of their answers with either their ages or grade:

• “I am thankful for homeschooling because I can learn more about God and I am taught by my Mom.” –Eric, 13 
• "I'm thankful I don't have to worry about being bullied and being made fun of." --Kristin, 7th grade
