George Washington wanna-be's

So today we are finishing up learning about George Washington with making Tri-corn hats. The kids were marching around with flags and Mia carrying a rifle. They even shared one with Lily Mae. Today has been a good day of schooling. Lots of excitement while learning and reading. days like these really remind me of why we are homeschooling our children. To see the excitement firsthand of finally mastering reading and to pick up any book and start reading because he loves it or figuring out a math problem and loving to do more, or mastering a phonics sound and getting to put it up on their tree, (I'll make a post about that later). Those are the things that I would not want to miss if our children went to school. Don't get me wrong . There are some pretty hard days that I end up crying and wondering if this is really want God wants for us. But then He just confirms our questioning by giving us good days like this.
