Signs of spring are popping up in the Rockies. From the Pask flowers, to the crazy 3 footers of snow followed by the 70 degree days, to the vibrant green in the woods. It is definitely spring. With Spring has also come the beginning our our home school Enki journey. We celebrated with our friends the Manzellas on Easter weekend to welcome springtime, bunnies and more importantly the new beginnings that come with getting older! Cedar and his friend Emmett had a small ceremony marking the beginning of schooling! It is was sweet, mellow and simple.
And then with that came the beginning of more rhythms to spell out the days. Each morning the kids rise, sing there meal blessing, feast, sing there "get dressed" song and prepare for Mom to begin Circle Time.Cedar is always excited and ready to sing, skip, balance, and do anything new that comes with the Circle. In our circle we are welcoming spring time with windows opening, walks in the mountain to find signs of worms, birds returning..and we progressively trot like horses, rise like seedlings into plants, storm on the gardens, gallivant the valley, and eventually end the evening in time for the Star fairies to welcome the night. We decided to join Emmett and family for our first C0-op adventure time...It was wonderful the woods welcomed so many spring signs, and the natural world left the rest of the exploring up to the boys all with such great movements and obstacles to get there bodies and brains chiming together. I for see many visits to the woods, Co-op adventure style.
All in all I feel so lucky to have been introduced to such a warm curriculum. I love that the kids enjoy every moment of here days. I feels so much more present in there lives, and feel blessed to have others to share the joy of homeschooling with. The sun is shining, and the adventures are on there way out the door.
