Jane shares my relish for a good little-kid story and often emails me choice snippets of conversations she has overheard. This one made me laugh out loud for real (LOLFR?).

Rilla, AKA ‘mommy’: “I want a lollipop!”

Beanie: “No, you’re too sick to have a lollipop.”

Rilla: “But I WANT one!”

Beanie: “Oh, fine, here’s one.”

Then she pulled out an invisible lollipop.

And Rilla said: “No! I want a RED one!”

In 2006, a year after I began this blog, I coined the term Tidal Homeschooling to describe my family’s homeschooling style, an ebb and flow of
high tide (planned, Charlotte Mason-ish) and low tide (unschoolish, delight directed) learning. You’ll sometimes see me call it Tidal Learning. Seventeen years later (and counting), the metaphor still works. At the time of this writing (January 2023), I’m enjoying tidal homeschooling with Huck and Rilla, my two youngest, now in their teens.

If you’d like to read more about tidal homeschooling, there are a bunch of posts at this link.
