A Day in the Life


Today I got my camera out to capture this photo:

To me, this picture seemed to capture in a moment why we homeschool. K is doing her school, and took it upon herself to teach her baby brother what she was doing. I love how intent he was on what she was telling him. Also love our doggy in the background.

So, after this, I was ambushed by K and I wanting to take pictures with the camera. What resulted was "A Day in the Life". (edited) There were lots of pictures. Seriously. It took me a long time to delete the extras, but here's the best of the best!

Seriously, this may be the first picture of me in awhile.

J hanging on while I teach G.


K, captured by her brother. Guessing she waited awhile for this picture to be taken!
K with our art in the background. That's right, we did art! (because if there's one subject that slips around here, seriously, that would be it!) And I'm okay with that. Really. I am. I don't ever fall into the trap of thinking I can homeschool my kids perfectly. Seriously. I don't. Okay, maybe sometimes....


I, up close and personal.


K posing and cheesing, for what was a really looong time for a 3 year old. We were working on patience, see?


Teaching cursive to G with a baby on my lap. (Good thing he's a good baby!)

Said baby getting sleepy. Or maybe he was thinking, "Help me!"
K's desk. She's done for the day!Spaghetti-o's for lunch! So fancy and healthy!

And finally, G studiously working away while I make lunch!

So, there you have it, all the GOOD parts of a homeschooling day! What, did you think I was going to document the bad parts???
