...but we did it by accident!
As part of our picture study (one element of a Charlotte Mason education), we have been studying (contemplating, discussing...) Vincent Van Gogh's Sunflowers.
As part of our picture study (one element of a Charlotte Mason education), we have been studying (contemplating, discussing...) Vincent Van Gogh's Sunflowers. In early summer, Gavin and I attempted to plant sunflowers with no success. (Mama's very un-green thumb, to blame, perhaps?) Before throwing out the remaining seeds, I tossed a few in a large planter in the backyard.
Delight of delights-- one of these towering summer beauties began to take root and spring up just in time to welcome the autumn season!
A wonderful example of multiple elements of life coming together to foster true natural learning!
What a beautiful sunflower!
