Morning work

We took our school work outside again this morning, and like magic I didn't hear one word from the little guy for nearly half and hour. He was amazed at the smallest things. It really has been a long time since we spent alot of quality time outside besides being at the pool. It has just been too hot and the mosquito's too ravenous.

I caught Emile in a mischievous moment writing on my satsuma tree. I watched before interfering, and was surprised how gentle he was being. No satsumas were injured in this event thank goodness!

Being outside for school also has it's draw backs. Distractions are every where, especially the love bugs that are just calling out to Avery! We did manage to get our spelling and math done, leaving plenty of time for his nature journal and of course chasing the love bugs (definite sign that fall is just around the corner!)

History this afternoon, art class and possibly a nap for me!!
