Today is Tuesday, and that means it is the ABCs of Homeschooling with 5 Kids and a Dog. We are on the letter "C". As I asked Charlie what he thought would be a good "C" word, two children piped up with their suggestions. DD11 suggested "crowns". We are looking forward to watching the royal wedding, so her response made a lot of sense. We found a website that had a Princess … [Read more...] about ABCs of Homeschooling – “C” is for…
