Easter Friday

Well I got up with the littlest one this morning Miss E, took over a sent me back to bed (a common occurrence these days which is lovely). I actually slept into 9 am!

When I awoke, bubs was playing happily, the lil tyke was playing trains and the 3 older monsters were sitting down practicing their times tables!

I reminded them it was Good Friday and that they didn't need to do any school work today and they complained! And asked if they could atleast finish their times tables!

Makes me feel like I must be doing something right! Love to hear that my children want to learn!

Home school Fun

One of the questions you ask yourself as a home schooling parent is what do you want to impart on your children, in knowledge, in values and in beliefs.

Impart my solution has come from my own childhood. As I sit here typing I am listening to my kids read The Lion, the witch, and the wardrobe. One of the books that inspired my love of the written word, part of the series that led to me exploring the concept of spirituality and developing my own belief system.

It's so nice to see them engrossed in a book that I adored as a child and that inspired me to discover more of the world around me.
