This is the Day.....

I always have high hopes and big ideas for what our homeschooling day will look like, but it is rare that we actually get to experience one of those days.  This day came close!! Finished school with the youngers before lunch with no whining, complaining, arguing, tantrums, pouting, melt downs or naps.

I actually got to read a great story to them....

and then make a skillet cake (this is after we tried some)

Kids didn't love this :) I assured them that after ten bites it would start to grow on them...

and then we drew with oil pastels pictures from the book....

ahhh!! That was fun........and then

The meltdown....

This is the Day that the Lord has made let us rejoice and be glad in it!  This is the Day that the Lord has made so let us sing and be glad. :)
