Cultivating the Colburn Kids

Starting Second Grade

Today...well...later on today during respectable hours!....we start the MFW Adventures Second Grade program with B. I love American History so am very excited about what we will be learning this year. The girls are on week 5 of MFW K and all three are working through HWT.  I am relieved to see that B's handwriting is finally getting better in his HWT workbook, and now wait for him to write that nicely in his regular assignments.

 

We missed a week of school and work with O getting sick. Poor girl had a instestinal bug, sinus infection and viral throat infection at once! And the pediatrican told me that Epilepsy does not qualify a child for needing a flu shot. UGGG! She catches colds that most people easily fight off, and I don't know if it is because of her medication since Epilepsy itself is simply a brain circut issue, but she was not like this prior to her diagnosis. B will get a flu shot since he has asthma and the rest of us will look out for the clinics around town. I am always frustrated when the ped's office has fewer flu shots than the drug store! I am praying for health for all of us!

 

We are in the second rainiest month of the year and B's t-ball game got rained out today. It comes down so hard and fast and then ends just as quickly here. It seems so strange! The kids have complained about cold temps when the weather got down to 70 degrees for two days and I told them I would not let them get thin Texas skin! I would NOT turn on the heater in the car! LOL! I can not believe it! I actually told them: "We are from Nevada, we can handle snow, this is not a big deal!" and since it is still humid here I ended up with the A/C on in the car anyways!
