Birthdays

March 17, 2018March 27, 2018 raisingreeds

Birthdays are my favorite. The kids get so excited days before my birthday making cards, crafts, and decorations to give to me. The sound of the kids scurrying around upstairs gathering it all up to give to me while I'm still in bed is something I hope I never forget. Getting older is tough. I'm not even… Continue reading Birthdays

Choosing Joy

March 10, 2018March 27, 2018 raisingreeds

If you could change one thing about yourself what would it be? I would change my lack of optimism. I have never been very optimistic, and I really dislike that about myself. So why have I not changed it? I finally realized that I'm the only one who can change that about myself! My motto… Continue reading Choosing Joy

Today’s book haul, and they were all only $.50 each! 🙌🏼 I love when I find a book that’s sitting in my amazon cart for cheap- like Benjamin Franklin. 😍😂 • The first picture is for school and the second picture is prepping for our Disney trip in a few months! The Dumbo book is older than me 😍 • Also, I’ve been debating posting pictures of our homeschool room. Ours is usually not as tidy as the glamorous ones all over Instagram. 😩😂 But I personally love to see where everyone does their school. Anyone interested? • • • • • #bookstagram #books #bookshelf #booksofig #homeschool #homeschooling #homeeducation #homeschoolmom #homeschoolcollective #homeschoolingbyheart #welleducatedheart #momlife #thriftstorefinds #fortheloveofbooks #motherhoodunplugged #childhoodunplugged #bookworm #homeschoolroom #letthembelittle #letthekids #documentlife #learningwell #learningathome #charlottemason #charlottemasoneducation #simplemoments #joyfulmamas
“Hate cannot drive out hate. Only love can do that.” • Today we read all about Martin Luther King Jr. We made books all about his life, listened to his speech, and did an egg experiment (eggsperiment?). My kids already knew what the insides of the eggs would look like(obviously we eat eggs and have chickens) but it was a great reminder that yes we may not look the same on the outside but inside everyone is the same. • And wouldn’t you know it my white egg layers aren’t laying right now because of the cold so I improvised on a brown egg with a chalk marker 🤦🏻‍♀️😂 • Reading about Martin Luther King jr and the horrible treatment people received of that times gets me. I cry reading the books to my kids every. single. time. Surely I’m not the only one right? • • #martinlutherkingjr #hatecannotdriveouthate #martinlutherking #inspirationalquotes #egg #homeschool #homeschoolmom #homeschooling #homeeducator #homeschoolcollective #homeschoollife #welleducatedheart #homeschoolingbyheart #homeschooldays #motherhoodunplugged #charlottemason #simplemoments #documentyourdays #wildandfreechildren #letthembelittle #learningathome #books #currentreads #weareallequal #mlkday #childrensbooks #readaloudrevival #thisisourhomeschool #parenting

Today we learned all about the moon and it’s phases. • I have to admit I didn’t remember all of their names. 🤭 Just add that to the list of reasons I love homeschooling: I’m always learning as well! • How beautiful are these fact cards and prints?! 😍They are from @growingbrave I plan to frame a few of them for my themed shelves in our school room. • Also, anytime cookies and school come together it’s a good day in my book! Who’s with me??😉🍪 📖 • • • • • #moon #moonphases #thegoodandthebeautiful #thegoodandthebeautifulcurriculum #growingbravenaturalists #homeschool #homeschooling #homeschoolcollective #homeschoollife #homeeducation #homeeducator #homeschoolmom #welleducatedheart #documentyourdays #charlottemasoneducation #charlottemason #learningathome #motherhoodunplugged #childhoodunplugged #letthembelittle #natureanatomy #homeschooldays #homeschoolingbyheart #myhappyviews #joyfulmamas #lifewellcaptured #science #homeschoolinspiration #oreos #thisisourhomeschool
