We're here still enjoying summer, trying to distill all the colors and outside time we can capture. As we slowly add more and more routine back into our days we're also seeking to establish new traditions and habits to our new home. In the spirit of Wendell Berry we're trying to "learn our land" which includes all of the nearby parks and trails. We've spent a few hours every day exploring and learning, seeking and gathering. We're currently hatching Monarch Butterflies and have learned to identify milkweed and about 15 other native plants. As these girls leave toddlerhood behind and move into young girlhood their minds are hungry. So we set up their learning room and nature shelf and started back into math and writing.
