"Perhaps the most valuable result of all education is the ability to make yourself do the thing you have to do, when it ought to be done, whether you like it or not; it is the first lesson that ought to be learned; and however early a man's training begins, it is probably the last lesson he learns thoroughly."

-Thomas H. Huxley (1825-1895)

Learning to Love Learning

When I first started homeschooling, my main goal for my children was for them to love learning. I felt that once they learned to read, if they had a true love for learning, the rest would fall in place. The hard thing was to find a curriculum that would ignite that love for learning. Sonlight Curriculum has been the vehicle for our family's learning adventure. We have been homeschooling since 1989, and using Sonlight since 1996. They say the proof is in the pudding. Having graduated 4 of my 5 children, I can honestly say that Sonlight has produced the well- educated young adults that I desired.

My goal is to help you ignite that fire in your children.
