I LOVE IT!
So, what exactly has kept me so busy I haven't made it to my computer?
These 4 reasons called,
Kiely, Justus, Gabriel and Ben!
Good reasons if you ask me.
One of the "biggies"....
Justus and Gabriel have learned how to ride bikes!
No training wheels!
They love it and spend every minute they can riding around.
Grandpa and Grandma bought a little
"KaZam" balance bike, and now Ben isn't far behind!

I started homeschooling Justus a few weeks back, still unsure of our choice, but not wanting to just send him off to school...he's really showing an interest in "going" to school and almost seems a bit lonely/bored being home.
There happens to be a Montessori school in town that is very flexible with our "plan" and would still
allow me to "school" some as well.
Even for mothers that are not homeschooling, I will be continuing one of our "curriculum's" called
Five In A Row.
It's great and has already given us many hours on the couch reading and discussing great topics from history, to art, science, and definitely character development!
I've just been checking out the books at our library, and many of them, we're not ready to give back when they're due! : )
We've also been exploring the Midwest some.
Ventured into Missouri, Illinois, and Iowa, including being able to see the Mississippi River!
That was fun!
I am continuing my quest/discovery of herbs.
Plantain (not the bananas), and White Pine trees are on the top of our list right now and have aided us in many
"First Aid" situations lately
(a regular occurrence in the Bondurant home : )
