A family who used to live 2 doors down from us invited us to a baseball game last Sunday. Her company has a suite that she gets to use from time to time. Drew has an anaphylactic reaction to peanuts and even the smell or touch can make him sick. Our friend keeps the box peanut free while we're there so he can attend safely. It's a blessing for which we are very thankful.
As a side note, after singing The Star Spangled Banner before the game began, I talked to Drew about the U.S. flag. That's social studies! I could have told him Betsy Ross made the first one but I didn't think of it. Could have also talked about who wrote the national anthem and under what circumstances, but I'll do that another time. My point is that there is so much our children can learn without text books and worksheets.
LIFE is School!!!
