I’ve been having a hard time with not accomplishing my homeschooling plans. I hear this is fairly common in homeschooling families, especially ones as relaxed as we are. So, instead, I’m going to post the things we did today here, with pictures if applicable, and draw educational correlations. For example, if we read books, I’ll put “read books- language development” or somesuch.
And until this evening when I have more time to post, I’ll leave you with a few Wildflower-isms.
The other day, she asked why learning was important, and I told her it was so you could do the things you want to do when you grow up. I asked her what she wanted to do when she grows up, and she said, “I want to go to high school.” And I asked her if there was anything else, and she said, “I want to be a dancer.” Anyone who knows Wildflower knows how apt that is for her.
Today, she was dancing around and singing, and I caught a snippet of what she was singing, and I heard “…sle-ep in heaaaaaavenly piece..es…”
And later, as we are dealing with sugar addiction over here, I told her I would put a chocolate covered pretzel AND apples and peanut butter down at her place, and she could choose which one she wanted to eat first, and she lit up and said, “Now THAT’S what I’m talking about!”
