The (mis)adventures of Caleb Veerman

People often ask what Caleb does each day while I teach the older two. He spends the first hour and half playing in his room, then joins us for snack and recess, then plays out back or with Kate for the rest of the morning. And what does he do during all that time in his room? These first two pictures are a representative sample. (I promise neither was staged!)

Dr. Jekyll

Mr. Hyde


Here's my little guy enjoying some trail mix and solitude out on the deck. I love the profile and the chubby arm. The cutest thing was his stocky little legs and bare feet swinging as he ate, but that didn't show up in the picture.



You know how it is when you're having so much fun at the sand box you just can't be bothered with pulling up your pants (which are at your ankles b/c you just went #1 off the edge of the deck).



Very proud of this block tower he made all by himself.

Personal Grooming and Self-Identification

Me: How did your hair get wet?

Caleb:

Me: What is your name?

Caleb:

Me: Show me how you brush your hair.

Caleb:

Me: And what's your name?

Caleb:

In case you couldn't hear his last line, "A. I'm turning six."

Hmmm.
