We survived our first day of the homeschool year, and I just had to share a humorous highlight.
At some point during the day, I was standing by my spot at the table and Kathryn came back from the kitchen with a grin on her face and her hands behind her back. She said, “Hey, Teacher! This is as close as I can get to an apple.” And she proceeded to plunk down one of our homegrown tomatoes on my desk.

Quite a funny girl, that one.
I’m glad I get to spend my days with her.

Yippee! First days can feel awkward even when you know the teacher. My daughter gave me a cucumber on our first day this year.
A cucumber? That’s even funnier than a tomato!
Awesome! Have a great year!
Cute! 🙂
Cute!
I love it! Funny kids.
That is cute!
Cute!
She sounds really cute. I love her sense of humor. That’s a very good start. 🙂
Humor always makes for a great day of learning!
Cute. 😉 I got a poopy diaper.
Aww…this is too sweet!! My son always tells me that I’m his favorite teacher. Melts me. 🙂 Hopped over to your blog from the hop! Hope you have a GREAT year!!
I’d happily except the homegrown tomato over the apple. Yum!!! I’m going to be so sad when I have to use store bought tomatoes again.
Treasure these times! So glad we have blogs to keep a record of our homeschool days ….. aren’t you?
