This is all the work that the girls have completed over the last few weeks. These weeks have been filled with winter colds and bugs. We've needed to take days off here and there and it has felt more disjointed than I like. On the plus side, Abigail expressed the wish to do something more…

September Precious Moments
Lots of lovely learning going on in our house right now. Lillie and Ads have started university. Lil has thoroughly enjoyed every fresher event she could, and has had a ball! Ads has been out with the Conservative Club at uni for a pub crawl! He still managed to catch the right train home and…
Precious Moments
I’m afraid today’s post will not be very substantive. I have felt off kilter for the past week, with a tummy upset, sore throat and just feeling generally ill and really tired. I slept most of yesterday (which is very very unusual for me to sleep during the day) and feel like I am maybe…
Precious Moments
A great productive week this week. The sunshine makes such a huge difference to all our energy levels and general enthusiasm. Over the weekend, the girls had their Edwardian Era presentation, which I will be posting about later: It was their first presentation, and both were a little bit nervous. But they did a great…
Seasons of Joy
I’m sharing a little bit from my adult children today. I am so proud of each one of them. They amaze me everyday- they are my best friends, my biggest supporters and the absolute joy of my life. As you all know, Thomas works for a church as an assistant worship pastor. His college work…
Precious Moments
Another excellent week! I am loving being back to my normal homeschool! I'd forgotten how freeing it was to simply follow interests. Not once in the past five weeks have I needed to persuade the girls to do homeschool. They are loving it as much as I am, and are so thankful that workbooks form…
Spring Precious Moments {14-/04/2018 – 20/04/2018}
This has been such a lovely week. We have somehow found balance again, which is so important for the relaxed homeschool I always hope to create. There is a good mixture of jolly hard work, siblings spending lots of time together helping and playing together, as well as lots of time spent with friends and…
Spring Precious Moments
I would have to question whether spring has actually sprung down in the South East of England...it is still freeeeezing here, although the sunshine does pop its merry head out every now and again to remind us all of what we are missing. The tide has turned in the angelicscalliwags homeschool. We are relaxed once…
Wintery Precious Moments (Week Two)
Follow my blog with Bloglovin Hellooooo...this is just a quick post this week, recapping the very few moments I had the opportunity to capture on film. Unfortunately, A9 seems to have gone down again with this infection, despite ensuring lots of fresh fruit and veg and fresh air. Lillie informed me a couple of minutes…
January Precious Moments Wrap Up
I can not believe this is the last Friday in January! Where on earth does the time go? As always, we have kept ourselves very busy. We have battled a nasty cold which has seen Lillie on antibiotics and a burst ear drum and A9 with a sea of snot which seems never ending! In…
Precious Moments {29th April- 5th May}
I am very time poor at the moment, what with working alongside the littles and working with Thomas on his chemistry for hours each day. It's paid off though because he is definitely starting to find the past papers a little easier. We were blessed by his physics teacher coming round and helping him with…
Precious Moments {21 April – 28 April}
Gary had planned all week to move the logs from the side of the garden to the back of the garden, so we can create some flower beds. So in this quest, he spent Saturday morning laying some paving stones next to the teen nook for the log shed to sit on. The littles had a…
Precious Moments {15th April-21st April}
You know when you get to the end of the week tired but incredibly happy with life? That is this week for me. The whole week has been full of goodness. It was lovely to have a two week break, but as usual we are all much more content when we are profitably occupied, and this…
Precious Moments {8th April to 14th April}
This has been such a fantastic Easter holiday week! I am liking this whole taking a break thing, and the children are loving getting together with their friends. I am completely ready for next term having spent days at the computer. (Note to self: next time plan to work just mornings and take afternoons off…
Precious Moments {1st April – 7th April}
It has been a glorious week this week seeing friends and enjoying the very definite spring-time weather...just lovely! We had friends over from Northern Ireland just for the weekend but we squeezed lots in and were exhausted by Sunday 🙂 Danielle took all the older girls up to London to see the sights: The trip…
