A Happy and Unhappy New Year

Well, 2014 has arrived. The wonderful New Years news is that I am pregnant. The not-so-good news is that my 2-year old daughter suffered a spiral fracture on her left leg. Having a super-active little one stuck in a cast for a month is not fun or easy, however it has helped me think of different activities to do with her. We've explored new crafts and even invited a nurse to our house for a mini-lesson on checkups (she got to use a stethoscope, but she was scared of the blood pressure cuff). I made several lessons that can be adapted for individual kids or small groups, which I will post under the "Homeschool" section sometime this week.
