If you give a child freedom...
They'll want to play and watch tv all day...
So you let them play and watch tv.....
and they find something really cool they want to look up on the internet
and if they find something really cool on the internet they might just sit there and read for over an hour
when they get done they'll want to get up and move around
and they might work on some choreography for a while and write it down
If you read what they've written you'll realize that wow! their spelling has gotten a lot better
After a while they'll tire of the choreography and you'll invite them to help you cook
You need to make a double batch so they multiply the fractions in their head
If they have enjoyed cooking with you they might go on to make a yummy cake for their family
Everyone will eat the cake and enjoy
Then they'll decide to watch mythbusters
....and come out to tell you about alkaline metals
Then you'll snuggle off to sleep
.....Wonder what well do tomorrow ?

OH!!! I LOVED THAT! Did you just write that out, or did you take awhile with it??? We are really into the "If you give a....." books right now, so I just loved that! Is it ok if I share that??? I'll be sure to leave your name!
