'Tis the season.
In our neck of the woods it's the CRCT.
I've taught in systems where it was the ITBS. When I taught in the state of Texas it was the TAAS.
Whatever the letters you give them, standardized tests cause children to dread going to school for a week (sometimes longer) because they know the drudergy and boredom that awaits them.

A lot has been rattling around in my brain about this lifestyle we have chosen.
I have already decided that I much prefer being "weird" , as opposed to what the world defines as normal.
What I am feeling more and more compelled to share is how the decision to homeschool really turned me upside down.

Have you ever felt like you are the only "normal" one left?
Are you maybe the only one in your family who homeschools? Are you the only homeschoolers in your church? Maybe you are the only ones in your community.
Sometimes I have just thrown my hands up to my husband and said, "Are we the only NORMAL ones left?"
