This has been such a blessing for us. It has also been, at times, challenging. Through it all it's been a great learning experience.
A blessing because it's helped my daughter to come out of her shell. She's more outgoing & engaging. The main blessing is that she, and I have made some really great friendships. That was really my goal going into this so it's been achieved. :)
Challenging because just like anything in today's world there are good & bad influences. Gossiping, social media issues, etc. are all still present whether you are a homeschooler or not.
I've prayed on it for a while now & have decided that the good far outweighs the bad so we will be continuing with the classes.
My daughter & I both really enjoy the fellowship & it gives us something to look forward to all week.
There are several choices for her age group for the coming school year. I think the difficulty in that will just be having to choose her favorites.
All of the mom's are required to either teach or help. I will be teaching a cooking class to the older children. I'm very excited about this & have been looking up recipes this morning to try to decide which dishes to make.
If you are a homeschooler & have wondered if co-op classes are for you I encourage you to seek one out & give it a try.
