I can’t believe it’s been five years since my youngest daughter was born. Natalie, now five years old, started Kindergarten this week, but it was towards the end of this years school year that it hit me. She was moving from Pre-School 3 days a week, 3 hours per day to Kindergarten, 5 days a week, all day long. My first concern was making sure that Natalie was ready for school, no only socially and emotionally but also that she was ready intellectually. Don’t get me wrong, I wasn’t about to make my child spend the entire summer doing school work just so she could be “ready.” But I also did not want her to fall behind, so I did some research for books, online programs and other homeschooling programs.
