Just Hang In There!


At one point Espresso had trouble reading well. I started to sweat it and get worried. My husband and other homeschoolers encouraged me to just hang in there. Keep putting one foot in front of the other and hang in there he'll catch on; AND he did!!

About 2 years later Double Espresso wasn't grasping multiplication. After hanging in there with Espresso, I knew that eventually, Double Espresso would catch on. Sure enough, it was like a light switch was flipped and he caught on.

Sometimes, it is a matter of maturity. Sometimes it is a matter of learning styles. Sometimes it is a matter of giftedness. You may even want to take a break for a little while. Eventually, something will click and your child will "get it".


If your child is having trouble in a certain area, maybe we can help give you a fresh perspective!

Hey Latte Lady!

I didn't see a better way for me to get a hold of you....so here goes:

I read about changing blogger layouts here. I chose to go with the site Our Blogger Templates because they had really great directions for implementing their stuff. Also, you should get a good free editing program like notepad++ from SourceForge.net, because it makes keeping all of your widgets much easier. Our Blogger Templates explains how to use this program to copy and paste those widgets from your old layout code to the new.
It's a little finicky, but if you have patience it's definitely possible. I can try to answer questions if you need. I've got a contact email listed on my site now!
