As the only teacher at our home school I'm also the only administrator (well, unless you add in Matt!)... so when the sky is a perfect blue and the temps balmy and the clouds wispy - well, it's early dismissal. Due to weather, of course :) We needed to get outside!
No trouble convincing these little ladies! And of course all the brothers were on board too.
We can catch up when the skies are gray and the streets slick with rain.
Later in the day we even moved dinner outdoors - packed up what was in the cook pot and took it to clover field. Our neighbors did the same and it was the perfect impromptu potluck.
Tomorrow (Monday) is a national holiday, so no local school for the kiddos. Then Tuesday marks the beginning of fall travel for Matt. I'm kind of dreading it. He hasn't travelled since April! Actually our entire time in the U.S. he had a only very few trips and just one longer time away. This fall it's back to travel again. It'll definitely take a while to get into the swing of things. We tend to get into a good groove and it becomes easier, but I think the first trips will throw us a few surprises as we make our adjustments.
Much grace needed here, all day every day.

With early dismissals, you'll quickly become their favorite teacher! Hope the transition to Matt's being gone from home goes smoothly.
Good luck with Matt traveling! The day looks like it was a great one.
We' re having very cold weather for sept. Next week should warm up but it's been chilly. It smells of fall, one of my favorite seasons. Glad for you for a nice day to have a picnic. No picnics here cuz of the cold, and bumblebees. Love you guys.
