just a little ORDER in the home

yes

I do like order

in the midst of

EVERYTHING

I do like 

ORDER

so we lugged up some things to help me have a little bit of it

whilst we live there this time...

home education is a blast

but it includes MORE than just books...

things like..

tiling,

plumbing,

sustainable farming, 

ecology,

painting, (house & artistic)

forestry,

scouting,

sewing,

cooking,

baking,

construction,

animal husbandry,

service,

work,

and, and ... and...ooodles of things that do not NEED "books".

Home Education also 

DOES include BOOKS

(at least in OUR home)

and they need their proper space to dwell

(at least in OUR home)

and here they are 

(for now)

happy day!

good use of the now defunct

wood burning stove ... yes?

ahhh

now 

off to gardening class!

Passion to LEARN

There has been a LOT of talk in the news

and at my supper table 

of the cost of fuel

the cost of oil

the cost of...

and with ALL that chatter

one lad realized something..

he didn't KNOW anything about 

ALL of that

but he REALLY wanted to

he wants to grasp the things the men speak of

and not JUST be quiet

because of ignorance

and being I have been homeschooling 

for a VERY long time now...

and have, well a few books about..

and hunting around for something HE remembered seeing once

Buddy found THIS

packed it in his Zuca

and brought it up here for me to read to him...

pretty snazzy 6 year old

(almost 7)

wow!

I appreciate anyone's desire to learn

especially when it is derived out of a passion TO LEARN

to NOT be ignorant of the discussion and fake it anways

to NOT wait till a teacher "gets around" to teaching it

but to pursue it

with vigor

and passion

and take matters into one's own hands

it's lovely to see

in anyone

but especially satisfying to see in one's own children

so 

here's to learning about
