First Swim Meet
The boys swim club had a "beginner meet" that they were able to participate in a few weeks ago. They each swam 4 events (and were EXHAUSTED!) They were able to see what "real meet" would be like... starting off the blocks, having their event timed, etc. This picture of Grant was taken after the 50 meter breaststroke and Clark's is after the 100 meter individual medley (doesn't he look thrilled with his performance?)
Believing that it is our God-given responsibility to prepare our children for a fruitful, successful life, we have chosen to homeschool them for these reasons:
To help them develop a life-long love of learning.
To give them a broad and varied education.
To offer them an individual-based education knowing that readiness and learning styles develop individually in children.
To assist them in fully developing their individual gifts and talents.
To enable them to have broad social exposure with people of varying ages.
To lay a foundation of a Biblical worldview to support everything they learn.
To prepare them for noble lives of service, being problem solvers in their homes and communities.
My all-time favorite picture of my baby...
"What you teach your children is what you really believe in. "
