It rained all day yesterday - which I know we needed - but I am looking forward to seeing the beautiful blue sky today and having less humidity!
Today we have our first day of our homeschool co-op. I'm nervous. Why? I have no idea! I wasn't originally planning to join this early in our homeschool journey - but T thought it would be a great opportunity for me to meet some like-minded moms and have some much needed social time (does he realize that I blog?) LOL
Quintin is very excited about it. Colin will be in the nursery, Elle will be in a class for 2s and 3s and Quintin will have 3 classes. Art, Music/Show & Tell, and Phys Ed. He asked me what Phys Ed was (Apparently, I'm not doing my job - my own child doesn't know what PE is - he even spent the final year I taught in utero - was he not listening?) :D
I told him it was like gym (thinking he may have heard this term before). He confused it with a TV show. Then I told him he'll get to move, dance and learn some sport skills (this he could relate too).
For Show & Tell, he needs to take something to tell about his family. I suggested a picture of us and then he started planning. After supper last night, he gathered us in the family room and said he needed to take a picture. I figured I'd hold the camera and snap a shot of us all together. He insisted that he not be in it.
I don't know why I like this picture so much. Is it because Daddy is between a blink and looks oh so tired (which he is)? Or, because it looks like Colin is encouraging Daddy that everything is okay? Or, because Elle has a big dimple in her cheek? I don't know which - but I wish the photographer was in it.
After Quintin took the picture, I asked him why he didn't want to be in it. He answered, "Because I'll be in my class - I'm taking all of you with me!"
Here's to a fun first day at co-op!

That is so precious! I believe the little man is ready for kindergarten! He is so sure of himself. I just sure he is a good learner. And what a wonderful picture!
I have my Bible Study post up. So now I'm going to just let it go and we will see what happens.I just hope someone participates--I'm not looking for a crowd--just someone! I'm pitifulwhen I'm ansious!
I think it's a super cute pic - especially of Colin! Hope you have a great time!
Wow...what an incredible little guy. He has great parents and is very well grounded!!!

I love this picture of you all! How sweet that he wanted to take in a picture of his family! What a sweet little boy!! :) Looking forward to hearing how it went! :)
How sweet. I love this photo, Leigh Ann.
That is so sweet. He is a great photographer and he sure has the right idea about show and tell.
Have fun!
It is such a sweet photo. Quintin is quite good with the camera. That's one worth framing!
Have fun at co-op. You'll enjoy it, I'm sure.
I'm getting nervous at how great Q's getting with that camera. I'm just waiting for a vlog.
The photo is priceless. You guys are such a sweet family and I wish I could reach out and hug you. Please....let me hold that baby! I have a feeling E would just run away :)
I hope the day goes wonderfully well.
Haha, Q didn't know what PE was. That is the joke of the day!
great pic! I love to hand a digital camera to a child...they shoot the coolest pics!
So sweet! Let me know how the co-op works and goes! I have heard of the co-ops but remain a bit clueless! I am interested in hearing about how things go!
Such a sweet photo! I think you love it because it is a relaxed snapshot of everyone. Plus it is from Quintin's point of view. Maybe you aren't like me, but I would have taken a FEW shots until we got the right one! Too much work, he nailed it!
Blessings.
What a great photo! I love that he wanted to take you all to his first day of class! Take a breath and enjoy your mom time!
Love Q's attitude that they'll see him anyway!!! So practical!
Susan
