Break

My husband and I had a nice break this weekend. My mother took the kids for Friday until Sun. afternoon. We ended up doing so much around the house that is really impossible with the kids around...we painted the kitchen and the kids' room and I organized all our papers into the proper files...that took almost 3 hours....
The kids had a great time at grandma's, they played outside, F did some pages in his workbook, played with his Legos, etc....they didn't want to come home :) but once we got home J told me that she was upset when I left at night and she was there all alone......(my mother being there didn't count) I love 4yo's....

It's been a while since I sat down and wrote a little, I've been so busy and really haven't felt like writing..... I did put the sample quarterly letter on the site but not the way I wanted to..I have to figure out how to add a file from the computer to this site...until then I put it on the side bar for info.

The kids have been doing their thing steadily for the past few weeks, F has been writing for his song writing class and this latest song she is having them do is inspiring him to write a little more that he has to...yay! he has also been doing math in his work books and we have been discussing various things daily. He has so many questions about everything. I also ask him questions about math every day to see if he can figure things out in his head, he is also playing a lot of math games on line, fractions and addition seem to be his favorites. We are still reading the Odyssey and are almost done with the 2ND book, F wants to buy the rest of the books in the series, we need books 4-6. I guess it is time to make plans to go to the book store :)

J has been drawing so much lately and she is getting really good, she seems to be interested in learning a lot of different things so we have been reading a lot and talking about animals and the Earth.

We haven't started J's new dance class yet because she has been feeling sick the past week, but we will go this Friday and get back in the routine of dance classes for her.

We have a busy week this week.....
