Arianna came to me the other day looking for her hundred's chart. "Kirsten is having her lessons," she explained.

"Oh," I said. "Are you her teacher?"

She looked at me, puzzled that I would ask such a question.

"No," she answered simply. "I'm her mother."

Later that day Noelle was having  baby. I was unavailable to play midwife, so Arianna stepped in and coached her:

"Ok now, when the baby starts to come out, you have to scream like this: 'EEEK!'

Ya, it was something like that 

My [daughter], if your heart is wise, My own heart also will be glad; and my inmost being will rejoice, when your lips speak what is right. Proverbs 23:15-16

Your children say the cutest things! I remember when the term "teacher" confused my eldest too, many years ago! So funny! Praying for your Grandma too. What a precious picture of her with Emily below. (Praying for you and your family too.)

That's so cute! Our five year old is confused every time we drive by the local elementary school. "But mom, why don't they just do school at home with their mom? It's lot's of fun, and you don't have to be away from home all day." Those days make a mommy smile :)

Oh, that is too cute!
They say the best things at this age.

We love Horizons math. It is great. For higher math i am loving Teaching Textbooks, but you have quite a few years before you'll need that.

Yes, i'm still cloth diapering. Not full-time, but most of the time. Hope has been reacting to the detergent, so i'm trying new things to wash the diapers. I tried tea tree oil last time...we'll see how it goes.

Thanks for the comment.
