Today, we had two friends to visit in the morning, ages 2 and 6 months. They participated in our morning school activities. “O” was so proud to show his mom what he made!

Social
We had the two boys in the morning, then I took care of my friend's three kids in the afternoon. She is sick with strep, so her two girls, ages 7 and 3, and boy, age 5, joined us. We went to the car wash, the grocery store, the park, and played at home while I made their mom (and them….and us…) dinner.
Your blog is so cool. I love seeing how the boys are learning and the all the creative ways you make it possible! We made "Stone Soup" last year and Sam STILL calls vegetable soup that. He'll say, "Mom, I could really go for some stone soup right now." While eating the potatoes he'll say, "Look at the size of this stone!" Too funny. I love homeschooling! :o) Thanks for sharing all your neat pics too, I loved the cows!
