How's it going with your Calendar of Firsts?
I've just discovered your blog. What a gem! Thank you for being to record your days here so that those of us who are just getting our feet wet with Charlotte Mason can be inspired and motivated. I look forward to looking through your space here for continued inspiration.
ReplyDeleteSounds like a very exciting April, Kristyn. We have our fair share of assassin bugs here, too. We used to catch them and feed them to Asher's pet snapping turtle turtle. :)
