I planned for this to be about homemaking and homeschooling, but now it's just a chaotic jumble of news and ideas about animals, kids, food, and other random thoughts.

Children's Literature: Pick of the Week
Wind in the Willows, by Kenneth GrahameCertainly I read this book as a child, but it's amazing how I do not remember anything about it. This is a classic that children must read. It is hilarious. The funnest part is coming up with the accents for the characters (you have to read it out loud). I did Ratty in my best British accent, and Badger was as low a tone and as gravelly as I could muster. But the best character in this book by far is Toad. Clever Toad. Handsome Toad. Humble Toad. If that doesn't crack you up, you haven't read the book. I can't wait to read it again with my younger son when he's in second grade.
