   Hi Michelle,

   We have six children whom we homeschool. I have been very encouraged and blessed by your website! My question is, how often do you get out of the house with the kids? By the time we finish with homeschool in the afternoon, and chores are done, I am too tired to do much of anything. I guess I am wondering how much socialization is needed, and how much time do you spend outside of the home with the kids, such as activities, errands, groups, etc. Also, we have a new baby, and I am worried about “germs” more than I should, so going into public places makes me nervous as well. The more children you have, I think the more you worry about the older ones getting the little ones sick! I also always stress about all the vaccines for the the little newborn, and have a tough time deciding if I want them all. Did your children have any problem with their shots? I know all moms just do their best to protect their kids, but it isn’t always easy. Thanks so much for your help.

   Michelle
