Quick trip

We've been starving for sunshine around here, so the chipmunk and I took a quick trip to Florida to visit family.  

He loves to sit and have breakfast and watch for skateboarders and dogs.  We spotted coconuts,  did some surfing on the bodyboard,  and had an all around fabulous time!

The kid who doesn't like to color

The boy doesn't really like to color.   He doesn't like to draw. He will paint occasionally, and he loves mazes, but most of the time has had no interest in holding anything that will write.   We pushed it a few times, then decided to trust that he'd come to it when he was ready.   All the things are available and he has mostly ignored them until this week.  He got up Monday morning and wrote a to do list on the chalkboard.   Then he wrote words on the sidewalk outside.   He gets it in his own time.

Early

A typical morning.   Sean has an agenda and I'm begging for coffee.

Just fiddling around

Someone had his first lesson today.   He had such a great time!

Just in time

New socks for the little man.   Just in time for it to be 50° and raining today.  He seemed comfy :)

Word Families

The Chipmunk is getting more and more comfortable with his reading (and admitting that he's reading).  We're spending lots and lots of time reading together, of course, but I thought we'd try to help him find some extra confidence by playing with word families.

We wrote them all out on the driveway, found a rock, and started hopping!


Be still my heart

This little man makes my coffee in the morning.

Springing up!

Daylight savings here came along with 75° weather and plenty of rain.  We're spending all of our time dodging the rain drops and planting everything we can find.   We can't wait for veggies!

No desks today!

Homeschooling FTW! No desks for us this beautiful morning :)
