week 8 - O magnify the Lord with me

Way fun word clue game - nurturing their growing interest in reading.  Each paper has a clue on it of where the next paper is.

 When he is obsessed with Hot Wheels - turn it into kidschool!  We measured how far each car went and recorded it on the white board (got some writing in there, too!)

 Troy loves rulers - and this is his favorite new game.  Like mother like son.


 Yay for art, painting and a big mess.

 Why did no one share the genius idea to start prepping dinner right after lunch with me?  Well I am very glad I made that change in routine.

 Also did some rearranging of furniture and moved the activities and supplies cabinets next to the cozy fireplace in preparation for the colder weather - and they are next to the rug where the activities are always used anyway, which makes clean-up simpler.


 They are running Thank You notes to our next-door neighbors.  Writing and thoughtfulness.  I am particularly proud that they are learning to be thoughtful.


 Yes, that is a mouse.  (Close your eyes Danielle!)

 Created Popsicle stick puppets with curtained stage.


We finished reading Charlotte's Web this week - I am growing to love that book more each time.  Even their Dad joined in on the evening chapter reading.  Family reading really is powerful and I am grateful we are finally doing it.
Some more progress on finishing the master bedroom!

  1. I can't believe that you got that close to the mouse. Looks like your kiddo's are learning and having so much fun.
