That sounds like a recurring political article title to me. Anyone else think so?
Maybe it already is…
Just thought I’d share a couple photos from the last couple months that were taken from the back porch. Foggy mornings and camouflaged visitors were too sweet to pass up.
These outside photos make me think of Owen today. Owen is experiencing his first retreat today. He and all the elementary students at his school are having their annual Spiritual retreat. They hang out outside and talk God. I can’t wait to hear his thoughts on it. He also wants to join the nature club at school. Once a month they go on hikes and learn about plants and animals, insects and more, but they also help around the school with flower beds and gardens. I think he will enjoy it and I love the hands-on learning that goes with that. By next year he can be helping me in the flower beds around our house.
I love the outdoor shots. It’s wonderful to have a back porch to enjoy, especially this time of year. I’ve had the windows open all day.
Emma’s school has a gardening club. It was previously the science club and included all sorts of outdoor activities and learning about the natural world. The teacher that has sponsored these opportunities is wonderful – we have loved the benefits of this kind of hands-on, Creator-centered learning for our kids. I hope Owen loved it too 🙂
