So, I won homeschool blogger of the month on a yahoo share group in which I am a member.  I was so surprised!  It is really encouraging to hear from other ladies who homeschool...I just love that group and was honored to be chosen for October! 

Our homeschooling it going pretty well.  We are still finding our routine, we never have two days exactly the same!  Which keeps it fun!

I am using Right Start Math with Katie and sometimes I am tempted to skip over something that I think is just too complicated for her to understand, but I usually just go ahead and try it, and boy she is so smart!  So far she has learned the term "quadrilateral" and "parallel" and "non-parallel."  AND she really understands them!  I have decided to not think about skipping anything anymore!  They are capable of so much more that we give them credit for being able to understand!

On the other hand...my silly son.  He is three and he just messes with me sometimes...I think he knows that I need to know that he is learning "something."  We have done 4 letters so far...and sometimes he just says "I don't know" when I ask him "what is this letter?"  He smiles when he does it too.  He is going to be one of those who you know he knows it but he just doesn't want to show it!

We are having a great time, though.  We are visiting a local pumpkin patch this week for a field trip.  Next week we are going to a local orchestra concert....I am really excited about that.  My kids love to watch Little Einsteins and are very interested in orchestra instruments.  Great opportunities for us!

LOVING EVERY SINGLE DAY!!!!!
