BOX DAY!

What is Box Day you ask? It's the day our box of books, curriculum, and goodies arrive from Sonlight! The much anticipated Box is opened, explored and celebrated. Box Day is a super duper exciting day in the life of a Sonlight homeschooler.

It's Not A Box...its a pirates treasure chest filled with unimaginable goodies, books more precious than gems! Argh!

Box Day is the equivalent of the exciting and much anticipated first day of school. Unfortunately the box arrived the day we were leaving for Nebraska. So we waited two whole weeks to open our special package. Caden asked EVERY DAY about THE BOX and asked what we would do on the day it would be opened.

Wow! Who knew a box could be so exciting?


We made it back to Texas and the 14 hour drive home was riddled with questions about what was in THE BOX. When would we open it. What would be in it. Could he keep the box after we opened it to make a chicken coop... You know, those standard questions you get about packages and empty boxes.

Caden was SO excited for Box Day. He requested his favorite home cooked meal. TACOS!

He also asked to take a bubble bath. Not just ANY bubble bath, but the kind you see in the movies where an entire bottle of bubble bath is poured into the tub.

After the bubble bath and dinner, we opened the precious package.

It was like Christmas morning!

And his favorite book was the Eggs and Chicks science book.

He also loved the Fun Tales readers and the Patternables block set.

We are so excited to get started!
