Aug. 28, 2007 - 13 Down 167 To Go
So far school has been going really well this year. We are still trying to figure out what works and what does not. Emily really enjoys doing most of her work on the computer. It was a struggle at first for her to get the hang of it, but each day we are making progress. We will be spending more time on History, Science and Bible because I will be adding to the lessons. Audrey is doing really well too. She is so excited about being in the second grade.
Trying to occupy a toddler and teach school has been the most difficult for me. It seems that she only wants my attention when I am doing something. If Emily & Audrey are doing seat work and I go to play with Sarah, she tells me to go away. I am finding out that Emily & Audrey are a little like that too. As soon as I sit down to help one of them, here comes the other one. Oh, there is just not enough mommy to go around.
The other day I purchased the Prairie Primer off an email loop I am on. I am so excited about starting this and hope that we are able to start in January. I have not read over many of the lessons because I have been busy preparing for our upcoming weeks. I did manage to read the part where we will need a pig’s bladder! Oh, my! This will definitely be a daddy project.
