Thanks, Janet! I go into a lot more detail about the specifics of breakfast school in the workshop I mentioned at the end of the post: https://introvertedmoms.com/rhythm/ Hope it’s an encouragement!

You’re welcome, Sharon! I know it can be hard when we want to balance our kids’ needs for privacy, but also share to encourage other moms. Very grateful that my kids are still okay with me sharing – I always read to them what I plan on writing first and get their permission.

Thanks, Amy! The Scholar Contract comes from the principles of Thomas Jefferson Education – you can read a bit more about that here: https://www.tjed.org/2011/06/homeschooling-excellence-scholar-phase/

Greetings! Thank you so much for this post!
I was curious about getting more details about Breakfast School. It’s just interesting to hear how others function at these cross moments of life…lol…

I truly love this series. Our children are similar ages, and like yours-my three are all completely different. Thank you and your children for continuing this series and sharing your day. I know my crew is not as fond of me sharing information about them on the blog anymore which I must respect. It is nice to see other teens and how they spend their days. πŸ™‚

Such wisdom! Continuing to observe how your homeschooling has evolved over the years is both grounding and inspiring. Thanks for another “peek” into your life and the lives of your children, Jamie. πŸ™‚
