I decided on Earth Day to add a last minute Earth Day lesson to our homeschool day. A quick pinterest search brought me to this. We listed to Jack Johnson’s 3R’s song, talked about how we can reduce, reuse and recycle. We planted our thyme and rosemary plants that came in our Greenling CSA boxes. I felt pretty good about our little last minute lesson for one afternoon. Until yesterday. When I heard Jude in the kitchen, fussing at Jason…..”Daaaaaad, paper towels are bad! Here, let me put that roll in the trash for you…..” Hmmmm. We might need to revisit….

Jonah loves taking baths with mommy so today we took a few photos to mark his 1/2 birthday. I love that he was born at home, in the water. And I love that water always calms him.

I woke up this morning to him nursing on my elbow, smiling and giggling. He thought it was so funny and had Jase and I cracking up laughing. Oh funny baby, it seems like you were […]
