Pictures were posted earlier today, but we redid the Tea Brick. This time we actually drank the tea from the brick. Dd made the Talking Feather and the Cross Necklace this week also.
After growing up going to FDL, I decided to name my homeschool (like my daughter) after the place I learned the most from. Sharing what books we've added into each SL core, by Core and Week. I'm also sharing our events with family and friends who check in on us here. If nothing else, I'm keeping a great, though epic, transcript of my Dd's education! May the good Lord bless and keep each of you, whether near or far away!
