This is homeschool!

Ann caught picking.  She is still seriously cute in that tutu.


At the Explorium for our Wednesday outing.  I love this glitter table in their open art studio!  They can have all the fun they want and I don't have to deal with the mess!  I try to get us out of the house one morning a week.  It could be to the library, the park, the Arboretum, the zoo or the Explorium (thank you again Real Life 1380 for our free family membership for a year!) 



Add Jane gave Bridget her first bottle the other day.  Jane was WAAAY more excited about it than Bridget.  She did swallow an ounce or two.caption
Look at those jowls starting to grow!  I kiss those cheeks a hundred times in a day.
This was school today.  Cate and Jane decided to play "Sarah Morton" - after reading the book Sarah Morton's Day, a wonderful book about a day in the life of a girl in Plymouth Colony.  They acted out her life (Jane was Sarah's friend, Elizabeth) for (I am not exaggerating) FOUR HOURS.  Two hours before lunch and two hours after.  When do you have a 6 and 4 year old concentrate on one thing for that long???  No fights or whining (which have become more common between Cate and Jane).  I let my worksheets go and let them be.  They were so quiet, intent and into it.  "Sarah, are you polishing the kettle?" I heard Jane's voice once.   OK, there is Bridget squawking, so signing off for now...
