Wednesday I went to the local homeschooler’s book fair. It was fun to talk with some of the other local homeschoolers and get a look at what everyone was doing with their kids. Most of the curriculum was Christian based, but there were a lot of great books that I would have loved to get. And a Math-U-See Primer for $10.
We made it out of there without buying a thing, and if you know what a book lover I am you know what a feat that was. I would like to brag about how my exceptional skills at self-control let me window shop without buying a thing. But the truth is that I didn’t have a dollar to spend. If the recycling hadn’t of been almost overflowing I probably wouldn’t have even gone over. But I decided to make a morning of it. Drop off recycling, take some things to the Salvation Army, hit the book fair for a bit, then off to the park for an hour.
So I didn’t get to take home any of the books I was drooling over. But we got to talk to some great people, participate in helping the earth, then run around chasing ducks and a few frogs. And we got to do it for free, no special books required.

Math-u-See for $10 is a good deal! I’ve used it with my kids for years and it’s hard to find deals on.
