And so January began…

The 3rd was my…

Sarah and I on my birthday…

John and our boys…

Daniel gets to (easily) crawl on carpet at a relative’s house (we have hardwood floors and no carpeting)…

Some painting…

Joshua cries because I won’t let him paint eat the paint…

And Daniel decides that since everyone is busy painting, now would be a good time to check out the phone books that he’s not supposed to rip up and eat…

Some previous (to the painting) artwork in our kitchen…

I’ll be putting the paintings in the living room.

A little something I’ve noticed…the longer we homeschool, the more we unschool. It’s amazing how much they learn and retain when they are allowed to choose the direction. It’s amazing how much more enjoyable the day is, how much easier they learn, how much more information they retain, when they want to learn, instead of being forced to learn. More later on that thought.
