green thumb

 This little gem popped up in our yard about a month ago. Eep! Eep! More pink flowers? I know I am in the right place. Also, hummingbirds are consistently found hovering around it.
 Kaleb has always had an interest in nature. He is happiest covered in dirt & looking for wildlife. I appreciate his green thumb because no one else in the family has it. I think his shaggy 'do goes with his personality so good, looking all the more like Grandpa Jeffrey as well.

I snapped a few photos of his on his first day of school. He is a 4th grader this year. (Whaaa???) Parker, Kaleb, & Aden are going on the adventure of Virtual Academy with me this year. It is public school curriculum done at home & a certified teacher is available for meeting standards & help if needed.


 The flexibility in schedule combined with the uncertainty going on in our life right now, were the reasons I thought it would be a good fit. Wish us luck! (I will post the other boys pictures as well. Kaleb started first because his materials came in the mail first.)
