I can't tell you how many people have asked me, "So are you done with school this year?" (curriculum wise.)

hehe I never know what to say...
We unschool.
My children never stop learning. Miss Dainty honestly doesn't realize that there is a time for no "school." She is constantly asking for it.
We've done so much this summer already. I'll try to do some posts soon, but today was fun... (well, after a rough, emotional start for me, but.. ah, well... at least it ended good!) And we didn't even go anywhere, really.
After the rough start, I took some quiet time devoted to prayer, and came back downstairs to restart our day. We ended up painting our nails, watching a few cartoons, painting during Baby D's nap, bike riding, and playing with playdough!
With the playdough, I sneaked in some learning, introducing Baby D to AB patterns and Miss Dainty to alliteration: Playdough Penguins Parading Past Paisley Print. This launched "The Alliteration Game." We gave each other consonants, and we had to make sentences using that letter. Quite challenging for a 6 year old's vocabulary, but she did great, and we had a ton of fun.
I love days like today! Thankfully, God is helping me hold it together for my girls. =)
