By Julie Simmons Avoid Homeschool Burnout… I’ve heard it said that if you are new to homeschooling, and you haven’t felt like crying several times in the first few weeks, then you are not really homeschooling.

We may take the week off earlier or later than planned as things come up that will keep us from getting school lessons done.
