Latin update
For some reason, I never write updates as they happen. I wait a few weeks. Anyway, it was funny: a couple of months ago, we were all sitting on the sofa watching Chespirito, and during the commercials, I was talking to my husband about fall school plans. He's the type of guy who will listen patiently, but in the end let me do what I want :). However, I pay attention to the questions he asks and his facial expressions, and that's usually feedback enough for me, lol!
So, we're sitting on the sofa, and I mention the debate I've been having of when to start dd in Latin, etc., and he gives me the strangest look. I don't remember him actually saying anything. I did stop though, and ask what he was thinking. With the same perplexed look he says, No, nada. I said, Oh, ok. We won't do Latin. His face relaxed, and I knew I was then back on his planet. At that moment, Latin was dropped. Completely.
There will be no Latin other than what is introduced in MFW a couple of years from now. At that time, we'll revisit the issue. Maybe. If by that time husband doesn't think I'm a complete dweeb (nut?) for even considering adding another language to our homeschool. Homeschooling bilingually in English and Spanish, while learning Japanese and German are probably enough for now.
One day, I'll remember to discuss things with him first, before drowning myself in too much information.
