Heard Around Here: Volume 4

Heard Around Here: Volume 4
I like to collect the things I hear around our home and share them with you occasionally. They’re a little glimpse into my everyday life. Here’s my latest collection: YES, WE ARE WINNING AT HOMESCHOOL: Sarah (6) and I read about the birthplace of western civilization for history in homeschool. My parents came for lunch, and being a good homeschooling mom, I felt the need to prove that we’re actually learning something. Me: Sarah, tell Papa about the two...

She pooped in her diaper.” (Three year olds love the word “poop.”)...

Illustrations: trend watch

I love observing people and popular trends, and Instagram is one of my favorite places to do that. I’m not super trendy myself and if I do hop on a trend it’s probably an awkward hop on the back of the train as it leaves the station. It took me forever to buy skinny jeans. I like trends, but just have never felt cool enough to join in immediately. So in the mean time, I will observe from the...

Baby Silas & Conversations with my three year old

Well, baby brother has finally arrived and we are loving him! Silas James was born last week and we are all in the throes of adjusting to life with five, each in our own way. We are keeping a newborn’s sleeping schedule and spending lots of time staring at this sweet face. It’s noon andI’m still in jammies as I write and nurse this guy. The girls are watching Wild Kratts, their current favorite, My now-middle child has a...
