I had grand plans to work on Project Life last night, but a homeschool injury sent me straight to bed along with the kids.
Yes, I typed that right…a homeschool injury.
I banged a little toe on one of the legs of MC’s desk yesterday and now it’s swollen and purple.
It hurts…a lot!
Needless to say, Project Life remains undone, so instead I’m going to share one of my favorite homeschool moments from this year with you.
Will is working through the beginning lessons in the Ordinary Parent’s Guide to Teaching Reading. Often we sit on the couch together while we say his letter sounds by reciting the “Consonant Rhyme”.
Last week Jenny was feeling especially cuddly, so she climbed up on the couch beside her big brother.
For a while she just sat by him and she would repeat the sounds as he did. The girl may know all of her letter sounds before she turns 3 if she keeps this up!
Then she began to cuddle with Will, giving him lots of hugs.
I love that homeschooling allows my children to be together and develop their relationships with one another.

How sweet – and in my mind this is probably one of the best parts of homeschooling!
I hope your toe feels better. Ouch!
