in a picture

A few glimpses of our last few days.


There's no way around it.  We are raising city kids.  sigh.  perks and drawbacks.  pros and cons.


Many hours listening to Daddy read The Fellowship of the Ring, and it's finished!  For history we're reading By the Great Horn Spoon and it is hilarious!  A great read-aloud to finish up our year.


Find My Butterfly.  He's got room to grow in spelling, but I'm feeling good about putting John Paul in 1st grade this fall!


It was a challenging morning for Luke, but there's nothing quite like a little audio book listening to help smooth things over.  (He's deep into many hours of Magic Tree House audio, and I'm hopeful this will be one great way to pass the hours on the airplane!)


And for the afternoon, boys and their dogs, ready to read.  I managed to squeeze in there and we got in some great stories.  The boys recent favorites are Junk Day on Juniper Street and A Sick Day for Amos McGee (both recent library selections).
