Cuteness on the playground
Today while I was in DS2's room at daycare (for lunch nursing), DS1's class was out on the playground. One of DS1's friends saw me and DS2 through the window and started shouting for DS1. When he didn't come, the friend went and got him and brought him to the window, holding his hand. It was so cute! Then both big boys were waving & saying "hi" & knocking on the window. The friend started making faces to get DS2 to laugh, and DS1 started copying him. I've never seen DS1 stick his fingers on his cheeks like that to make a face before. He would look over at the other boy and then do what he was doing. That was cute, too.

Email to Unschooling In The Midwest group
Hi, I'm Nancy.
I'm mom to 2 boys, ages 25 months & 8 months. I love watching my sons figure things out and learn on their own, so I am learning all I can about homeschooling (specifically unschooling) now. I really like that the more I learn about unschooling, the more I like it and the more I realize how it is right for me. (Take learning about homeschooling and unschooling, for instance. :-) I hope that over the course of the next 3 years (before the older boy is supposed to enroll in school) I can demonstrate to my husband that it is the right way to go for the boys, too.
As a perfect example, my 2 year old son loves jigsaw puzzles. He is a whiz at them. Last Sunday a friend from church gave him 3 books, each with 5 12 piece puzzles. The frame is a plain rectangle and there are not lines to help show where the pieces go. He has only worked on puzzles with standard jigsaw shapes a few times. Last night (only 4 days after he got them) I watched him to one completely by himself.
