Awhile ago I responded to a Scholastic offer for a free art book. Its really hard to find good children’s bios about artists. As much as I love our little small town library they aren’t big on buying books that help classical homeschoolers. I mostly rely on the Internet but given that many artists and […]

Last Saturday Princess got a balloon at Toots. Yesterday morning I declared it time to clean kid bedrooms. While helping Princess to clean hers, I saw the now deflated balloon and decided to throw it out. I bagged up the trash and threw it into the garage.
When we got home last night, I picked up […]

What school will you go to?
That’s the hot question for Princess these days. She loves telling complete strangers that her birthday is July 31st and she’ll be 5 years old. The next question is *always* the school question. Its apparently what one asks all 5 year olds in the summer. She always answers very proudly […]

Like Brandon, Chief is working on his shirt folding technique from the post below. He got it faster than KP and I did.
