our homeschooling days

Our homeschooling days are quiet, relaxed, not forced at all.  Sometimes the teacher in me wants to do, do do.  I want to finish projects or work on printables.  But really, they are already learning.  My four year old has invented a spaceship.  And my two year old daintily lays out all the poms and…

Happy Monday friends! I'm so excited to share a copy of this lovely book with one of you.
Art is not something I’m familiar with. Growing up, I thrived in theater and music, but never art. Unfortunately, I always felt like “I wasn’t good” or “that’s not my thing.” I’m sad about this! Since homeschooling my children, I’ve come to realize that I’m indeed a wonderful artist!! I can draw plants and bumblebees and even an octopus! I just need a bit of time, good materials, and a good teacher.
