September 19th-25th

Highlights from this week include:

*Finished up the Lil' Angels Attic Sale at church

*Celebrated National "Talk Like a Pirate Day"

with lots of pirate type learning,

instead of our normal animal alphabet lessons

with the littles

This included dressing up like pirates in an effort to receive

free doughnuts from Kripy Kreme-

Arrrrrrrrr!

*Little Wild Man attended his first

University of Tennessee football game

with Super Dad

He loved it-

Go Big Orange!!!

*Baby Girl and I auditioned at the

Oak Ridge Playhouse

for the upcoming musical "Annie"

I think Baby Girl now has gotten a taste

for the theater bug,

so I will be looking for more opportunities like this

in the near future.

I am a musical theater geek,

having spent many evening in rehearsals

during high school

practicing and goofing off waiting backstage

to go on.

I have always seen that dramatic flair in 

Baby Girl,

and I would love to nurture that in her.

I feel like it is good for all my kiddos

to have their own "niche."

Jungle Girl is my crafty girl,

Baby Girl is my artsy performer,

and

Little Wild Man seems to be my athletic gamer.

As they grow,

I will of course let them explore other

activities and hobbies,

but I hope to keep in tune with what

God has naturally inclined them to do,

and develop those passions 

in their lives...

*Celebrated International Homeschool Spirit Week

on Pajama Day

*Continued to get the dirt on dirt in Science

*Began learning about the letter E with the littles

*Began praying for my dear friend's nephew,

Cullen,

who was born at 23 and a half weeks old

(I will post more about this in the next weekly wrap-up...)
