A Man Went Out To Knit

We begin our homeschool days with a few verses of Scripture.

Yesterday I read aloud The Parable of the Sower from the 8th chapter of Luke. It begins "A sower went out to sow his seed:". This dumbfounded my students, so I immediately stopped and explained that sowing seed meant planting, and that even when Daddy plants his seeds, he will be sowing them. It is not sewing as with a sewing machine.

It all made immediate sense to the Form I kiddos, so I re-read the sentence and continued with the parable, followed by a request for narrations.

Now, Honey doesn't want to be left out of the fun, and has been occasionally asking if she can narrate as well. After Son & Sissy were finished with their narrations, Honey asked if she might narrate.

"Sure! Tell me all you can remember about the story!"

And the adorable four-year-old replied "So, a man went out to knit."

Children are so fun.
