Thoughts this Winter Was it just me or did this winter FLY by?! I think it probably was just me. I know this winter was brutal for a lot of people weather wise – but it was pretty good to us academically! I felt like we finally got into our groove after months and months …
Thoughts this Autumn It has been almost a year since I have done a schoolhouse review and I am, honestly, really bummed about it. 2022 has been filled with so many blessings. And I hope to write more on that when I get to our New Year’s post. But one thing that has been a …
This is Benjamin’s first year doing formal read alouds and we are so excited! It’s such a special time and I can’t wait to do it with him. Many of these books are picture books and can be read in one sitting – but there are some early chapter books sprinkled in – that have …
