Hello Summer!

We just wrapped up our 17th year of homeschooling!

I love our learning days,
yet when summer comes ’round,
there’s just a whole new breath of fresh air to be taken.

Simple summers are a beautiful thing!

Our family doesn’t do summer sports, no day camps, no overnight camps, and we pick one VBS to attend.  In general, we will set aside one day a week for any scheduled activities or meet ups with friends.

We do create a rhythm to our days; a routine, of sorts, to flow with.
Responsibilities, rest, and recreational activities that collide with resourcefulness.

After parenting for so long, I’m acutely aware of how fast these summer days go fleeting by.  I don’t want to be so busy going to things that we miss building relationships.  So we will be mostly enjoying the fresh breeze of our 2 acres as we embrace low key mornings, midday swims in the hot sun, and explore self-led interests in the cool of our basement.  I ain’t gonna lie, I’m very much looking forward to lazy care free days.  Happy summer ya’all!
