Summer at Home

Summer at home looks like...

sleepovers with a friend
late night giggles and morning mischief
including little brother makeovers



Afternoon waterside wanderings
among slippery rocks
futile fishing and rock hopping
Reading aloud over the happy river noise
when the muddy boy naps in my lap





 "New" flower photo captures 
for our summer flower journal
Who knew there were so many
I didn't know?












 Rideau River play
fantastic for the easy-climb willows
over mysterious muddy shallows
Sun-warmed marsh smells
and blackbirds' happy calls


Late rising mornings
and lazy afternoons of
involved lego play
Tucked away readers
living adventures far away

Boy begging for some school
Girls needing some morning routine
Park play with other homeschoolers
Near daily water play of some kind

Unintentional late nights (some unfortunate)
Scrambled meals as routine yet elusive
Library visits and arm loads of books
Impromptu picnics and welcome computer time.
