The days are different now.
We did not send the girls back to preschool
after winter break.
Now with the severely cold weather
I'm thankful to have cozy mornings of
hot milk and coffee.
We are not new to homeschooling.
Our homeschool adventure began in 1997.
I am not overly concerned
with academics.
At this age,
I look for teachable moments,
little lights in their eyes,
lots of hands on experiences,
and books,
rooms full of books.
Cami loves writing her ABCs.
Delilah loves puzzles.
Cami wants to know how to spell words
for the grocery list.
Delilah mostly loves the color Blue.
I love watching their minds
make sense of the world,
ask questions,
and come up with new ideas.
I really love being the one who gets to see
the world
Through the eyes of a child again.

**Easily** the best part of being a parent!!!!
I really like having you writing regularly again. Brava! I love the pictures. It should motivate me to learn more as I have resolved. It should.
ReplyDeleteI admire your homeschool decision. When Julia and I work on her reading and word learning, or when, like today, I stay in her classroom for 20 minutes while she settles down and gets to work, I think of you and wonder when I will try homeschooling.
