Today in our Life.

Some days homeschooling seems impossible. Kids are ornery, mom is ornery and we are just not getting along. Other days it goes wonderfully. They ask for more “work” or ask me to read another story or just try so hard to figure things out. Some days we unschool and I let the girls do whatever they want.

What I do love is to look over and see my daughter has written her name for the first time all by herself.

Or the other is reading a book about ants and follows the words with her little finger.

Some days one school thing is enough for this momma and her girls. Some days one school thing is too much for this momma and her girls. Some days all we do is learn in both conventional and unconventional ways.

What I do know is these little kids are sponges and the soak up knowledge so quickly along with grow far too quickly.

    All of us at work agree that all those extra lines on the E’s are the cutest!

    You might want to ask Kristi for the card from Howie’s baptism. She drew a picture and wrote her name on the other side, with all the extra lines in her E’s.

    School is hard enough with the hours blocked out. I don’t know how you do it. They sure are smart girls.

    I think we are the same way, so its good to hear someone else with the same learning situation going through the same phases. I love Eden’s E’s!
