Homeschool Mother's Journal/Weekly Wrap-Up June 28

A fun summer week here at the Home to 4 Kiddos.  :-)

Last Friday, Kiddo #4 and I spent a special afternoon together.  I wrote all about it here where you can also see more photos.

On Saturday, Kiddo #1 took a regular box and made an airplane out of it that he intends to fly.  He even installed a propeller and motor!  This boy can make ANYTHING into a working airplane!  :-)

Kiddo #4 made us all a treat, Chocolate Chip Sugar Cookies, which I shared on this week's Try a New Recipe Tuesday.  If you would like to see the recipe or all of the others that were shared, you can click here.

There were also fun badminton games

and the AMAZING Super Moon

Kiddo #3 made us a presentation on the Dumbo movie.  He recorded the audio of the entire film and then took his own photos and made his own animations/illustrations on Power Point to go along with it.  Just brilliant and quite entertaining.  :-)

They have even swam everyday always being able to get in their time before the daily thunderstorms...

On Thursday, Kiddo #4 made a pillow for Kiddo #1 in her sewing class.  It was his birthday last month and she wanted to make sure that she made him something special, even if it was belated.  :-)

I also would like to thank the staff at Teacher Certification Degrees dot com for selecting my blog for inclusion on their "Top 100 Homeschool Blogs." list.

It was a wonderful week for which I am grateful.
