The Home Depot Option: Why we homeschool our nine kids

I recently had a memorable stroll through Home Depot with seven of my children. As I was leaving the screw aisle for the wood aisle, a clerk asked me: “Are all of those yours?”

“Yes,” I replied. “One hundred percent natural.”

We practice these virtues in our home classroom when a bigger kid explains to a younger the differences between compound and simple leaves or changes the baby’s diaper while mom explains long division to a younger.

He proceeded to shake my hand and commented: “I thought maybe they were cousins.”
