My Favorite Homeschooling Moments...Reading To My Kids

My favorite time that I spend home schooling with my kids is when we snuggle on the couch and I read to them. I try to do this daily, but it happens usually 3 or 4 evening a week. To me, this is my favorite time and I hope they never outgrow it. I had a friend back in Myrtle Beach who told me that even when her kids were high school age, they still wanted her to read aloud to them together. That is my hope! And now my kids are 13 and 11, and they still beg me to read almost every night. I love it! It is the most precious time to me. It makes me stop the busy-ness of the day and just be with them. We have read all kinds of books - some that make me cry, some that make me laugh, some that are difficult to get through (written at very high levels) and some that are just quick and easy. I hope we never lose the closeness that we share when we read together!

What's On Your Refrigerator?

This is my first "tagging" and I want to do a good job! The meme question is , "What's on your refrigerator?" Well, because mine is stainless, I can't attach anything with magnets, so the front is clear.

On one side, I have some photos and magnets. I didn't plan on putting anything there, but my kids insisted.
On the other side, I have the Mexican Border U.S. Agriculture Quarantine Information so I can remember at a glance what I can and cannot bring across the border into the U.S. Very Important Info for me!
