After we got home from school today, the kids had a snack and I went to my room to do some more work. It was surprisingly quiet so I went into the kitchen to see what they were doing. I found them focused on writing and drawing. They had decided to make books. I overheard Tyler tell his sister his book was about “Me and Mom.”
While they were working I heard Natalie offer words of encouragement when Tyler made a mistake and also give him pointers on adding pictures.
It was a rare productive and peaceful evening!
