Thursday, August 16, 2007 - CO-OP has begun!!!

Today was our first day back at our CHEF co-op... It was a busy but beautiful day...It was so encouraging to see all the excited faces and all the new families that had joined us this year...

My kids were so excited that they had trouble going to sleep last night... I was able to get them up very easily this morning, even though it was almost an hour earlier than normal for them...

The co-op is offering some great classes this year and I have taken advantage of all the wonderful opportunities that were available...

DD is taking her favorite, "BALLET" (taught by a former HS graduate), and then off to "Phonics" (taught by dear old mom), then off to "Organized Play" , (which is great for a 4yo)...

DS is taking "Art", then a "Craft" class, then "Contenders for the Faith" (which mom is assisting with) ...

After these morning classes we have a 30 minute lunch break and 30 minute family / group devotions with the Pastor George...(their is such a large attendance this year that we had to alternate our lunch schedule and make it into 2 different periods)..which is truly wonderful!!!

Then in the afternoon, DD takes a class called "All about Forests" and then "Countries of the World" (again taught by dear ol' mom)...DS is taking a "Time and Money" class, and then "Financial Peace for Kids" (a Dave Ramsey course)...

To finish what is already a hectic day, we head from there to Karate for both kids and then they play with some other kids while I and some other mothers do an hour long aerobic class...

To make it easier on us, we've made Thursdays our new "PIZZA" day at our house... *L*

well, so long for now, it's almost past my bedtime... Happy Learning!!!
