Learning Comes in ALL shapes and sizes!

Ruthanne is learning to write and spell

neat letters and words!

She is also learning to pay attention

to things around her, like our beautiful budding

fruit tree!

Hannah is learning to explore and help!

She put the apron on and jumped up on the chair

wanting to do dishes just like Mommy!

Ruthanne is learning to write sentences in school.

She draws quite well!

Nathan knows how to do puzzles and to play

nicely with Hannah while Ruthanne does Phonics

and Reading with me.

They are all learning to work and help. They helped

bring these heavy cement blocks over to our neighbor.

Nathan picked up quite a few of these by himself and put

them in the wagon. I had to help him push it at times

up the hill, but he did well and kept going!

Our neighbor wanted them in his flower bed so he doesn't

have to fill it up with as much dirt. So we were both helping

each other out! Isn't that fun!

Even Hannah picked up small cement pieces and carried

them all the way to throw them in here. It was

so special to see them all help out!

Learning our manners at the table!

All of them are learning to sit nicely in Bible time

and during school time.

Sitting quietly means we can still smile cute!

Even Aletheia knows how to sit still and be cute

too! She is a helper!

Learning takes place in the kitchen as the children

really wanted to help with the tomatoes. So they peeled

garlic and we made blender tomato soup.

It made a big mess but also a BIG pot of soup.

And everyone was able to pop a few cherry

tomatoes in their mouth at times!

Ruthanne is learning to use words in sentences.

Older sister is learning to read to all

of her siblings. Aletheia is enjoying Ruthanne's

very exciting story.
