Why I Think I Won't Homeschool

During quiet time, Hadley sometimes likes to practice her letters and words.  The worksheets she currently works on have the two solid lines and the dashed line in between to help write the letters correctly.  Hadley doesn't follow those lines, and she also likes to fit as many words as she can on one line.  Very much the engineer, this one.

Recently, after completing an exercise, Hadley showed it to me and I told her that while it was good (Great! Spectacular! Outstanding!), she was supposed to write the words out using the lines as guides....not smooshed up making it difficult to read them.

"Would you like to re-do this, Hadley?"

"Sorry Mom, I only do things once."
