Questions.

This is my first blog post on my homeschool blog.

It's like looking at the plane that's going to take you to Nepal so you can begin climbing Everest. Just like that.

Only scarier.

As I begin homeschooling, here are [some] of my questions...
1. Can I homeschool when I get pregnant?
2. Can I homeschool even when I suffer from depression?
3. Can I homeschool my three young children, at the same time, without destroying my marriage or my sanity?
4. Can I homeschool without a budget of 1 million dollars, per child, per year?
5. Can I homeschool with a home that is staged and on the market?
6. Can I give up any semblance of "me time" and utterly embrace my calling as a mother and a teacher? (Really though. Because after 7 years, I'm still not there. Not even close.)
7. How will I know if I'm failing?
8. How will I know if I'm not?

These are some of the questions I really want answers to that I haven't been able to find in a book. Any book. And I've looked.

I wonder if I'll ever know.
