Nov. 7, 2009 - My Weekly Report
This reporting has gotten by the wayside because I have been so busy. I have been doing the FIRST Lego League. It is so demanding this program. I will not continue this next year. We spend two days a week and about 5 hours a week working on programming, building, and research. This is a tough job. The children do not know how to program a light sensor. So, I realize this is too hard. They will have to pray and seek the Lord as to how to make these missions work.
We manage to get reading Story of the World, Plutarch, and Shakespeare into our schedules. We have manage to get Primary Mathematics in for both boys. We have soccer practices, piano and violin practices too. Since the FLL has consumed a lot of my time, I realize that we need to do something different. I did summer school and then I did FLL in the fall. I really overextended myself. My children are learning a lot, but I feel it has come at some price.
My younger son got a staph infection. I do not know where. I pray the rest of us don't get it. I took him to the infectious disease doctor who put him on strong medicines and a body cleanser. This is hard. He has missed games this season due to illness and the staph infection. We are battling our bodies and our wits at the same time.
That is my report.
