Homeschooling

I know I haven't updated in forever, but wanted to briefly talk about our decision to homeschool. I'll post another life update soon!

So in our school district, the twins wouldn't be able to start kindergarten until 2015-16 school year. They are so anxious to start school, and super smart, so we decided to start them a year early, at home! 

Our major reasons being:

* Rylan's medical needs: she's so complex! I don't trust anyone with her. They is just so much to her, even though developmentally she is on par, there's just... A lot! 

* Rylan's packed schedule: currently she sees over 10 specialists. Plus she has many surgeries. We would miss a big chunk of school due to that alone!

* Dakota & Rylan are geniuses: they are so smart. It's ridiculous. They definitely need a challenge or else they are bored! 

* The district: at this point I'm not confident in the district. We've been using therapies through them for almost 2 years. We love her therapists!! But I'm just not confident the district as a whole will be good for the girls at this point. 

So those are our major reasons!! I'm so excited to start! We've started buying our curriculum (I'll also write another post about this). The girls see their books coming in and want to start! I love how excited they are to start!!
