Letting my boys be boys at this very moment means letting them shoot bottle rockets in the back yard. They should be inside finishing school work, but during their break they decided to drag out the hose and start shooting off a rocket. They should be inside doing science; instead they are outside experiencing science. I think the whole neighborhood is experiencing science along with them. Our hose makes this ungodly high-pitched sound when it's on - so loud that if I try to water the garden while Ben sleeps he sometimes wakes up yelling 'go swimming now!'. The water, coupled with the rocket launch, the air pump and the shrieking of 3 very excited boys is certainly being heard all over our small neighborhood. This is what many would call a 'homeschool moment'. It's what I call a break for mom, who really should be doing laundry...
