I decided to join in Amanda’s Summer Reading Challenge. Since we homeschool year round, I’ll probably only get a chance to read one a month.

My picks:

Susan Branch Summer Book
Okay, so there’s not too much to read (so I’m not really counting it) but I do love these books!

How the Catholic Church Built Western Civilization
The early beginnings of Christianity, always fascinating to me…this one has been in my Amazon cart for awhile.

Hold on to your Kids: Why Parents Need to Matter More than Peers
Cade and Connor are starting to become a handful. *smile*

Montessori Play and Learn: A Parent’s Guide to Purposeful Play from Two to Six
Ideas for Quinn.

Blog Notes:
“My Son, the Homilist,” an absolutely delightful read about children and church.
Semicolon’s “100 More Things to do when You’re Bored: Summer Edition” and the original list, “Bored- Nothing to Do.”
