Summer is ending this week as children go back to school. For us, it's feeling like time to take a break. For our entire schooling career I've called our schooling method the tidal method. I let the wind and the weather dictate our schedule. I just can't see us taking a break when is wicked hot outside while we stay indoors during the gorgeous Fall, Winter and Spring(except for the 6 weeks of cold). BUT summer here is full of friends doing fun things and I need to figure out a way to balance it all. Sigh, I have a whole year to think about it. In the meantime here are some glimpses into daily life here in the Stecherbush.

| Eli got his first Scientific Calculator and everyone wanted a turn to try it out. He's finishing up Algebra I Saxon and I feel like that's a great accomplishment. |
 |
| Sam's black-eye care of a carelessly flung water gun. Oh brothers. |
 |
| Eli's always bummed when he doesn't have an activity on Wednesday nights. Baking cookies is his favorite consolation. |
 |
| This wild woman loves babies and her kitchen stuff. She's getting a little better about sitting and paying attention to things and talking so so cutely. |
 |
| We recently gave up on our 2 CD players that were hanging on by a thread. One didn't work at all and the other barely worked if you knew the right things to do. Sen finished it off recently so I let Samuel and Luke take them apart. Others joined in but Sam and Luke love that sort of thing. As soon as Brigham can properly manipulate screws with his screwdriver I'm afraid he'll take the whole house apart! |
