Uniform

Simple, Kakhi bottoms and polo style collar shirts.
School is a challenge enough with having to fight about what we are going to wear. The fight between boys and girls are different. Boys want to well whatever they can get get there hands on clean or dirty.


Girls just take a long time to decide what they want to wear and if I disapprove it is war.  Not that she has a ton of clothes I disapprove of it is the way she wants to wear them.  It can be distracting for even me!

Doesn't she look cute!
I decided to take the fight out this year and just have a school time uniform. Yes I have the fight when we don't have school but it doesn't hinder our school start time.


James doesn't totally need a uniform except he is the bigger clothes fight.  Oh my some days!!  Now it is just like the easy Sunday, go put on your church clothes except I say school clothes.

She can wear jean or kakhi skirts.
Now to work on sitting up straight in class. It is always something isn't it? What do you think of homeschool uniforms?

hehehe...my boys would rebel with the idea of any kind of uniform...given they had to wear a uniform when they went to school and we're pretty much trying erase that image. :-)

I do remember at the very beginning of homeschooling (2 years ago) they wanted to know why they couldn't just wear their PJs. I told them it wasn't very professional. We're still going to approach our days like it is our (good and noble) work. They day they see Dad leave for work in his PJs is the day they can show up to life in theirs. :-)

But they are older. There are no clothing battles I've had to deal with (other than telling them to put on an extra sweatshirt instead of requesting the heat be turned up).
