Educating Caleb

Oct. 11, 2008 - 2 days in a row

No, it's not a title for a new reading program.

It's a record of sorts for around here this year.

We actually accomplished ALL of what was on our list the for the past 2 days.

WOW. Rejoice with me!!

Let me clarify. FOR SCHOOL. The rest of this place?? I must confess, I didn't even get dressed yesterday. I am just SO tired at the end of the week.

WHY didn't someone tell me that after you have a baby late in life.....YOU are still the one that has to complete raising, training, educating and CHAUFFERING this child all over the planet (at least, the driving part fits if you live in an area like I do and want him to have any activities at all).

GOOD GRIEF.....I need some mega vitamins or something.

He completed the first unit of Science, with a quiz and a test. Did another quiz over in Grammar, did Bible (which btw, is a VERY comprehensive subject at this level....sheesh), history and geography, did some catch up work in his Lit class, did one of the drawings that were homework for art class (yeah, that hurt him to do THAT assignment) and even did a little reading/research with some books he ordered at the library about Egyptology (he wants to learn to write in hyrogliphics or however you spell that and even wants to learn to speak Egyptian....can you say "rosetta stone"?? Sorry, no math.....I chickened out. More on that at a later date....I have some plans rolling around in this tiny brain of mine!

All in all a great day.....done before 2:00.....getting up early is the ticket for us! With a few jogs around the cul de sac with his dog thrown in.

Hubby came home in a funk though......not sure what that's all about. Must investigate today.

Weather is SOOOO beautiful here....maybe I'll pull him away from this house project (the possible cause of his funk, I'm thinkin') and run away to the dunes or the lake or even an apple orchard today.....

Until the next school day,

Denise aka The Domestic Angel
