Thoughts From the Minivan

One reason I love homeschooling ~ I am witness to so many precious moments like these (Griffin reading to Anne Claire):

Tucker is now an official "Tiger Cub" and we are so proud of him!

Griffin can't wait to be a Cub Scout just like his brother!

I feel so thankful to be able to homeschool our girls and be present for those amazing moments. :); March 4, 2008 at 10:37 AM

Mother, O Mother, come shake out your cloth,
Empty the dustpan, poison the moth,
Hang out the washing, make up the bed,
Sew on a button and butter the bread.

Where is the mother whose house is so shocking?
She's up in the nursery, blissfully rocking.

Oh, I've grown as shiftless as Little Boy Blue,
Lullabye, rockabye, lullabye loo.
Dishes are waiting and bills are past due
Pat-a-cake, darling, and peek, peekaboo

The shopping's not done and there's nothing for stew
And out in the yard there's a hullabaloo
But I'm playing Kanga and this is my Roo
Look! Aren't his eyes the most wonderful hue?
Lullabye, rockaby lullabye loo.

The cleaning and scrubbing can wait till tomorrow
But children grow up as I've learned to my sorrow.
So quiet down cobwebs; Dust go to sleep!
I'm rocking my baby and babies don't keep.

-Ruth Hurlburt Hamilton (1958)
