Ana & Becca Start School

I took the two little girls for a walk on their first day of school (the day after Labor Day). Of course, Becca did not actually walk on the walk, but took her bike - and the lead - all the way to the post office and Caribou Coffee (for their first-day-of-school treat) and back.

 Morning glories in full bloom at the neighbor's!

"...even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these" (Luke 12:27).

So, this year, Ana is in 5th grade and Rebecca is in 2nd. This evening, Papa brought them home a small stack of tried-and-true children's books he found at a garage sale. They're in great condition and even us big kids are elated over the four "Mrs. Piggle Wiggle" chapter books. We tend to emphasis literature in our schooling at home (Progeny Press puts out some great study guides, by the way), and 25-cents-per-book is hard to beat! Thanks, Papa!
