In our Homeschool this week I thought we would study Robert Redford one of America’s Heartthrobs. Robert Redford is someone I knew Charlie might not be familiar. Allowing my family to watch movies Charlie hadn’t had the opportunity to watch in our Homeschool Drama Class. Would you like to join us for movie night?
