You know that moment that you KNEW that you KNEW that you KNEW that this was the right thing? I remember mine. My son was doing Across America from Hewitt. In the afternoons we went to the creek to gather sandstones because one of the older boys was building a koi pond in the yard for a homeschool science project. Suddenly the 6yo picks up a sandstone and says, "Mom, its shaped like Delaware!" That is a memory treasure from many years ago.
Another one was a few years ago. My two youngest were about 12 and 17. We were going somewhere in the car when the kids started fighting. The were reading Romeo and Juliet and each wanted to read for a while. They were pulling the book back and forth, saying, "Let me read it! It's my turn!"
It's hard to imagine anyone but homeschoolers fighting over who will read the next act in Shakespeare.
So tell me your wonderful stories.
