{What I’m Reading}

I am still working through the Charlotte Mason series, and have also started Leigh Borton’s The Core: Teaching Your Child the Foundations of Classical Education.

I am considering doing the Whole30, so I am also reading It Starts With Food: Discover the Whole30 and Change Your Life in Unexpected Ways.

{A Day in the Life}

Life is crazy, as usual! Cam turned 5 months old on the 23rd. He is growing so quickly!

Reese is gearing up for her 7th birthday this month, and we are on a birthday count-down. She is so excited!

Homeschool has turned to focus almost solely on Classical Conversations, as Abby Grace is working to become a Memory Master. We have about 4 weeks left, and she is doing really well.

Basketball is wrapping up for both Abby Grace and Reese. We still haven’t made a decision about playing soccer. Our Saturdays have been non-stop for months, and we are ready for a break!
