Christian homeschooling integrating Classical and Charlotte Mason principles
In July we officially changed our sign: While we were over on that side of the farm, I opened up the door to the old guest house, which we have left in a state of de-construction because we are currently preparing to build onto our actual house. I subsequenty shut […]
On Flag Day, the boys made a Flag Cake for MomMom’s birthday: And it just so happened that they were enrolled in the Macon County Arts Council Art in the Park, so they were able to make some homemade gifts for me in addition to the homemade cards they made: Summertime harvests started coming in… INCLUDING […]
We started out the summer with a trip to Destin as a special reward for Stephen’s diligence in striving to become a “Memory Master.” Though the dolphin cruise fit in nicely with our Island of the Blue Dolphins and Nim’s Island unit studies, Gary reminded me: “You know, Brandy, it doesn’t HAVE to be about learning…” […]
