When your education pays you back!

We all hear it from our children all the time, " When am I ever going to use this?" or, "Why do we have to learn grammar?"

Well, these past few months, I have started medical transcription at my home. Suddenly, all of those years of learning spelling, grammar and punctuation has started paying off in spades! I think it's hard enough at my age to learn so much of the medical terminology and drug information, but if I had to learn spelling, grammar and punctuation, I would not be able to do my job. I would have had to quit before I started.

I am so grateful for homeschooling which has taught me far more than my children learned!! It certainly is making my transition time easier.
