My musings on our homeschool, coop, figuring out what my educational philosophy is anyway, and will I ever make curtains for the rest of the appartment?
We were on vacation last week. I’d claim internet savey caution that I didn’t post about it until now, but really, I was too busy to post about it, so it’s more like fortuitous ditziness. The bridge into Fall River Continue reading Last Monday at Battleship Cove
K is my girl. Give her a bunch of raw materials (paper, recycling stuff before I can take it out, old beads…and a LOT of glue) and she will make more stuff than I can easily store. Miss Jamie at Continue reading K and Paper

B is now slightly taller than Dan. When he stands up straight.
Yesterday I gave K the alphabet cookie cutters with her play dough. She was so excited that she used them as models for cutting letters out of paper. I bought her a ream of paper Tuesday, unfortunately, it’s hard for Continue reading K’s Projects
