School for a homeschool family can look very different on any given day.
Take for instance my twins' history lesson today... Tonight after dinner, Daddy told them the story of young Martin Luther and his conversion to Christianity. Daddy engaged the boys' imaginations and took them on a journey back in time over 500 years. They asked questions, they interjected their 2-cents, and even chuckled and gasped at different parts of the story. Did they learn anything? Heck yeah. Can they tell you all about Martin Luther? You bet!
Or, how about how Julia is learning to read better and better each day... She is teaching her younger brothers what each letter of the alphabet looks like and sounds like, she writes notes to Daddy to give him when he gets home from work, and spends close to an hour every day "playing" with her LeapFrog TAG.
And so, we're learning in school, with our first week back just about over. But, did my kiddos ever really stop learning?

No, as I longtime homeschooler, I can attest to the fact that whether we are "doing school" or not, they most certainly never stop learning. It's a continual process! :)
