Our current read-aloud

We're studying ancient history this year, and our current read-aloud is Tales of Ancient Egypt, by Roger Lancelyn Green. Egyptian gods, magic, good stuff.

Story time is my favorite part of our school day because I get to sit down and read. And the kids are required to be quiet.

Meet Little Miss

My baby! Precious, perfect, adorable little one year old pooh-bear.

This sweet little surprise has made our days (and nights) a lot busier, and we wouldn't have it any other way.
