I’m sure I’ve said it before, but one of my most favorite things about homeschooling is the quiet time when I just get to watch the boys focus and concentrate. To watch their little facial expressions change as they think and consider. We have a lot of time during our schooling that isn’t calm … there is lots of giggling, me going back and forth between the boys explaining, talking and discussing. Even singing. Hahaha …
But occasionally (usually once Cooper is done with his lessons for the day and leaves the room), we do have quiet amongst the chaos and it is a highlight of my day…




































Documenting the details of how Gage works on his school activities is a pretty perfect example of how I love to photograph our everyday.
If you’ve been around my blog for awhile, I hope you know what a priority this is for me. I believe so passionately that simple events such as this will be what my family enjoys looking back on most. Because of that, I embrace the responsibility to tell my kids’ stories through my camera 100%. And I encourage you to do the same! I discuss how I go about this (and so so so much more) in my Break-out Session with Clickin Moms, which goes on sale TOMORROW!!


I’ll share a bit more about this tomorrow, but wanted to give ya’ll a heads up! AND … you don’t have to shoot with a DSLR to benefit from the information in my course. Please, check it out. ![]()

I admire your dedication to homeschooling – I wish that we were able to but we’re just not able to. I was so excited to find out that you were doing a BO, i’m so looking for to it!
I love “seeing” those little wheels turning. It’s fun to document the physical, but you also capture the mental activities of the everyday so beautifully. Yes, life is both crazy and calm. Your break-out session will help others do the same.
XOXOXO to GCK from Grammie
Yeah for tomorrow! I am so proud of you for doing this, you are blessed with such a beautiful gift and to be able to share it with others is icing on the cake! And I love how you shoot the boys so much, it seems like Gage is unfazed by you even taking his picture and that, I think, is when you get the most genuine pictures of your everyday:-)
