One of my favourite things about unschooling is the freedom…

After nearly 2 weeks of rainy and cloudy days the sun has come out and we are all feeling the great effects of fresh air and sunshine. These are not the days to be in the house or stuck in a building…

Spring...

After lunch, we headed out to some trails not too far from our house. As soon as we got far enough to no longer see the car, I took Wilhelmina off my back and let her follow us… she was so determined to follow her brothers and discover all that there was to discover…

Wilhelmina determined walk...

She walked and walked….

She ended up walking nearly 2 km before she finally just sat down and refused to move and as I was about to put her back on my back Xavier offered to carry her the rest of the way… I adjusted the ERGO for him and she had a big smile as she realized that she was going to tagging along with her big brother…

It’s these little moments that erase the harder parts of being a parent…
