Jan. 3, 2007 - getting back to "normal"!
Greetings! It has been awhile. We spent two wonderful weeks with family in NC. The children had such a blast. There is so much running and exploring to do at Granny and Papa's house! We only had school about three times and then when we returned home everyone got some awful virus that lasted a week. So, today has been our first day of school again...just a review as I feel like I am starting from square one again!
My two oldest seem to be doing well in phonics and math...our two areas we concentrate the most on. We do Bible and a few Science experiements maybe two times during the week. I feel that between our Bible time at night and Awana's they have a good deal of exposure to the Scriptures. And we do Science purely for the fact that Blessing #1 claims to be a "scientist" and I want to keep his interest going! Along with Phonics our lessons are about Community Helpers and this week is the dentist! It was good timing as Blessing #1 lost his first tooth over the holidays....and Blessing #4 gained her first tooth!
Time to prepare lunch for my little hungry ones! If anyone happens upon this and has any good sites for finding modest, long, little girl dresses...pass it on please! I know my only option is learning to sew them myself.....yikes! But, if I must learn...then I will!!! Thanks!!!!!
