Sage and his Cozy Coop

This sweet little child is teeter tottering on the edge of toddlerhood and childhood and I just want to stop time. He sounded out his first word yesterday during school and that says a lot about whats going on in his brain. He is absorbing so much and like Aiden he is starting to learn on his own and make connections between what he already knows and new information. It's so fun to watch and at the same time I want him to slow down and stay little. He still hangs onto some of his toddler words and thinks clementines are called tinatines. :) He thinks oatmeal is called A.B.O. And yesterday when I asked him if he swallowed his gum he said, "No, I ate it!" He asks increasingly more questions about God and his own innocent faith is emerging. His interests involve anything with a motor or a button or anything that goes fast. His 4th birthday is coming up and his very own vacuum is at the top of the list. I have a feeling he'll most definitely be getting that! Sage is also my love. Several times a day I hear, "Mama! I love you and I like you! You are my best Mama I ever had!" And I always say, "You make my heart happy, Sage!" To which Sage always replies, "I know!" :) Please little Sage, don't ever get too big to stop playing in your Cozy Coop!

Apple Creek

 A new year, a new orchard. This year we tried out Apple Creek Orchard and it was a really pretty place. We picked apples, took a hay ride, and the boys had fun with the apple slinger. We were joined by Tom's parents and it feels so good to have them now living close by instead of far away. 

Almost to the finish line.

 It's hard to believe that Aiden turns 18 in one week and walks through graduation in just one month. After more than a decade of homeschooling, 2 years of PSEO, and no less than one million moments that I'll treasure forever, my oldest will be an adult and graduated. Great things are ahead for my boy!

Happy Birthday, Cade!

 My littlest is seven and it's hard  not to be sad. We couldn't be without him, and we're so glad he's ours.  At seven years old Cade loves to do what everyone else is doing. He will NOT play by himself, and maybe it's because he's used to having someone to entertain him all the time. He loves legos and soccer. He also loves to read. I am ALWAYS finding Cade trying to tackle reading a book he probably isn't quite ready for. Lately he's been trying to read The Hobbit. While he's able to read all the words, he just doesn't have the depth of understanding to read it independently quite yet. He LOVES Tom Sawyer so he was delighted to find an abridged version to read.  Cade makes up his own mind about things. He will NOT be bossed around. He holds his own, so I don't worry about his brothers pushing him over. Cade also won't be pushed over physically. He is one tough kid. If Cade is crying, I know he is actually hurt because he never cries ove...
