I am new to homeschooling, have a family of five, and am looking to meet other SAHMs that are also homeschooling. If you are a SAHM or are a homeschooler, please write back and let me know how it's going for you.

What can I do next?

So What Happened?

We are on our way to becoming organized homeschoolers. My daughter thanks me at least once a week for homeschooling her or teaching her various things. I even have my preschooler excitedly telling others that he is also homeschooled. They are great kids and I love working with them and teaching them. I have really enjoyed meeting all the other homeschooling families that I have met this past year as well. I look forward to the summer although I know I will still teach my kids since teaching andf learning are fun. And next year, I plan to begin officially involving my preschooler a little more. So I'll have a 2nd grader and a prekindergartener. Oh, and as for me, hopefully I will soon be able to engage in teaching some co-op classes as well. Anything is possible. I already help some of the neighbors (friends of my daughter) with their school work and sometimes they say they wish they were homeschooled.

Hi A., you didn't mention if you are active in any of the home school enrichment programs around the various counties.
For me personally, home schooling has been wonderful. I didn't start off doing this though, I had my daughter in P. school for the first three and a half of her schooling years. When I realized she was having some problems in various areas, I got brave and decided to go ahead and home school. I have never regretted the decision.
I have found that when meeting other home schooling families, the parents are always much more involved and invested in their children's lives and the kids seem happier and well adjusted.
I would urge you to join several organizarions which will steer you into the many choices availabe for you as well as group meets and park play days. Please go over all of the websites until you find places and things that are near to you.
I can't stress how wonderful and informative the upcoming convention in central Florida is. If you can somehow make it, you will be surprised and encoraged at all the knowledge and confidence you will get from the many vendors and lectures there. You will find information on the FPEA website that I have listed below, along with many others. DOing online searches and calling around, you should be able to find others with which to share. There are many of us, and the numbers keep growing.
Best of luck to you, you are doing the right thing!
Hope this helps.

We too just starting homeschooling!! I am pretty far from you though, in Port St Lucie. But, there are serveral Umbrella schools in your area that you may want to check out. We signed on with one locally because it lists our child as a private school student, provides social get togethers often and even keeps our records. They have been a great source of support for me and our son! GoodLuck in your adventure!!
