The Difference in Feet

We bought Little Man a ruler. He loves it. He especially loves to wave it at me. I overheard Dear Hubby telling Little Man that "12 inches makes a foot". Now when I overheard this I was in a separate room of the house and I chuckled thinking Little Man would be a bit confused by this. A few seconds later I heard Dear Hubby laugh and Little Man giggle, then I heard Dear Hubby say, "your foot is smaller than a foot on the ruler."  A few minutes later when Dear Hubby walked into the room, I asked him if he got it straightened out with Little Man on the difference in "feet"?  Apparently, Little Man had taken off his shoe and stepped on the ruler to try out this "foot" thing.

It's these little snippets in time that keep the joy a-comin' :)

Homeschooling update

This week we are working on the letter "M" and the number "8". I am also introducing the short and long sounds of the letter "A". I have pics but haven't had time to upload them, I will once life settles a bit.

It's over

Today is the last day of Christmas break for us. Caleb and I return to our usual routine for school. He's ready and so am I. I'm sure Dear Hubs is also ready :)
We have had a good break and enjoyed the resting time. The best part about it was just being able to rest and relax. Rejuvenate.
So how was your break? Did you have a break? If so, what was the best part of it? If not, what was the highlight of your holidays?
