Peaceful, pajama morning in our homeschool


Time: 8:30am
Location: Family Room floor
Sound: melodious Yanni's Dare to Dream
Scene: Seated inside the Duplo railroad track he built with his 2yo brother, my dark-haired 8yo works a crossword puzzle in The Elements: Ingredients of the Universe. Already completed in this morning's 2nd grade: an egg-boiling experiment in Singapore Start-up Science, the final page in MUS Gamma, the conjugation of celo (I hide) in the future tense in Lively Latin...and breakfast.

Oh, if only the whole day were to be so serene...

Wonderful morning! And he picked a perfect spot to do his work too. :o) I love it when I see the kids working together to build something. :o)

Have a wonderful tomorrow!

My youngest, being in public school, always looks forward to the one day each year when they get to have pajama day at school! My oldest and I usually get dressed in the mornings...but I am thinking we need a pajama day intervention!

I love days like that!

And, yes, he does have a rather Far Side quality to him. Along with Calving and Hobbes. Could it be that it is somewhat related to the fact that he reads those things obsessively or that he great genetic stock for that kind of humor? Perhaps a lot of both!
