{inspired by Fall}

We have spent so much time outside these days,

sometimes completing school entirely outside by way of books packed up in hand

and working in the sweet sunlight,

or sometimes we finish school inside as fast as we can to get outdoors!

Today, the three younger girls and I spent quite some time picking flowers and following creatures known as bugs. ;-)

The older two played hours of basketball, football and soccer and ran to their hearts content.

"Must we always teach our children with books?

Let them look at the mountains and stars up above.

Let them look at the beauty of the waters and the trees and the flowers of the earth.

They will begin to think during such times,

and to think is the beginning of a real education."

David Polis

"The grass withers and the flowers fade,

but the Word of our God

stands forever."

Isaiah 40:8

I love the Fall season.
