Well - I made it! I survived the first day after Christmas break and even got in a bit of exercise!!
I reviewed all of Sam's work that he needs to complete for his first year of high school and he is progressing well in Algebra and literature of all things! Not so great in Science and History but we'll keep working on it.
Noah is my little work horse and he got all of his assignments and completed them all too!
Gabe has improved so much in math that I really think I can start letting him work more independently. This second half of the year I want to step up his reading skills. He told me today he would like to go to Hoban High School, which is our local Catholic High School. I told him if he can get a scholarship, he can go. I suddenly saw much more incentive! Let's see if that carries through.
Izzy got through Math and a little reading. I will start with her tomorrow.
The kids went with me to run in this gorgeous weather! Sam 2.6 miles in 30 minutes. He said he felt nauseous when we were done so he knew he got in a good walk! Noah ran almost 2 miles. Izzy ran 1.3 miles and then felt whipped. I walked 1.3 miles in 30 minutes and felt pretty good. I hope to eventually get in 2.5 miles in 30 minutes.

we have a lake by our house and it is 2.25 miles around it... but I haven't been going since the time change b/c it was my practice to go at 6AM and it is WAY too dark at that time now. Maybe I should start going mid-day! WITH the children! Great idea!
