So far this summer we are loving…..
the wind in our hair
even when they are fertilizing the fields
campfires
fresh food
Being outside. Everyday. A whole lot.
Messy art fun
We are still finishing up the school year since we take a very extended mid year break when "the brothers" are here and then another in the spring for a very special wedding.
Our routine for summer school days usually involves getting up and having a leisurely breakfast. Then chores. Then I settle in at the kitchen island and they gather 'round taking turns sitting next to me or moving down the island to work exercises as needed. I read their lessons aloud with them which is our favorite time. I honestly love their books and insert "Isn't that FASCINATING??" comments rather liberally during our sessions together. Then usually rabbit trail off into the wild and wonderful world of youtube : ) Some finds related to our work lately:
