Homeschooling Means...#25

...my 8 year old knows who Rosie the Riveter is.  

This girl cracks me up and I sure do love her!  

She has always loved to pose for the camera.  People often tell me that we may have a future model on our hands.   Usually she does sweet, head cocked, "aren't I adorable?" type poses.  But this is her new favorite.  I think she needs to be Rosie the Riveter for Halloween next year.   

She first learned about the character of Rosie because of a President's Day event we go to every year.  In addition to all the other things going on at this living history event, there are 5 women dressed as historical figures walking around.  You have to find them, learn a little about them, and then get a sticker.  Once you find all 5 and get your 5 stickers, then you get a prize.  We look forward to it every year!

(This series is meant to be mostly lighthearted and fun.  Some may be serious, but most will be silly, braggy, or of the keepin'-it-real variety.  Not every homeschool is the same.  And some of these things could be said by public school parents.  This is just to highlight MY experience with MY homeschool and MY children.  Enjoy these little insights into our life and feel free to share your own "Homeschooling means..." in the comments!)
