The Letter "I", Tomatoes and Pulleys

So, we are in the swing of things as far as kindergarten goes. However the fact that school begins in the weeks when the gardening harvest is at full tilt is kind of tricky.
I've got tomatoes coming out of everywhere, along with string beans, carrots, and peppers. And I'm still in the beginners category when it comes to knowing what to do with it all!


And I have no interest in learning that right now because I'm having a blast focusing on teaching my firstborn his phonics and math! I'd never in a million zillion years have predicted that I would enjoy this teaching stuff, but I'm LOVING it! Now, almost twenty years after I should have known what to major in at college and possibly pursue career wise, I may have figured it out! How's that for a little late! :)

Anyway, like my mom told me the other day, the Lord may have just planted this new love and desire in my heart in order for me to do my best teaching my little guys! My mom always has an insightful and very encouraging word for me! Love her to death!

Here's my kindergarten guy practicing his letter "I" all on his own. :)


And here the boys are consuming themselves with discovering everything you can do with a pulley. Thanks, Daddy, for a little science lesson. :)

Oooh, it looks like you are having SO much fun!! I'm so happy for you! Those tomatoes look awesome!! We had a really nice harvest, but I think we got the "blight" and our vines have turned brown and completely dried up. I look forward to reading more about you and your sweet family!
