That has been the question I have been asking myself for the last week or so when it comes to my son, TT. I know I choose to homeschool and love doing it, but man it can be hard spending every waking moment with your children. This last week we took off for the holiday and because my hubby was on vacation. We spent all but 4 hours with the little darlings.
Please don't get me wrong I love family time, but TT is going through this stage where he acts goofy about everything. He makes corny jokes or lives to aggravate his sister and me. I guess maybe I need to plan a little me time in there somewhere, but that will take a miracle in itself.
I know I am not alone in this. I have read countless accounts of wonderful mothers who have the same feelings on homeschool message boards. But I feel so guilty feeling this way.
That being said I have to admit that I spent my evening in the company of about 8 young boy scouts and their parent at our pack meeting and enjoyed it very much. I enjoy seeing TT having such a good time and forming friendships that will last with these boys. And when I sit back and look at them they are all goofy and annoying at times like my son, and it warms my heart to know that he is not alone in his goofiness.

I think we all feel that way from time to time. That's usually when I tell dh I'm going out for coffee. LOL Hang in there they do grow out of it a little.
Btw you can email me your email through my blog. Look under links and you'll see a email me link.
Have a blessed day!
