Homeschooling in Illinois

Just an UN-Average Day

Posted in Schooling

My oldest son D has had an earache since Sat.  On Monday he developed a fever.  So on Tuesday, my husband leaves him a note that tells him to rest up, his chores can wait.  D tells me he can't do school either, because dad told him to rest.  So I decided to let him choose what he wanted to do for school.  He was so excited.  He first chose his typing instructor, and then chose Jumpstart 2nd grade (which made me realize he really needs a new level).  I was going to have him pick a workbook to do some pages from, but I decided to just let him play on the computer.  I took him to the doctor and got him some medicine for his ear infection.  The doc said it was pretty bad.  I thought it was mild, because he Sunday and Monday he said his ear wasn't hurting, and Tues he said it was only hurting a little.  D does NOT have good pain tolorance, so I was surprised. 

Right now, D has decided to change C.  It's pretty cute.  He was putting the diaper on backwards.  She is sitting very good for him.  Too bad N is trying to disrupt things by teasing the both of them.

Jan. 25, 2006 - Sorry:-(

Posted by Amber
I hope your son feels better. My daughter's ear was bothering her alot, so I got some Collidol Silver (sp??) and it really helped! They say it's great for ear infections.

BTW, when you go to CO, PLEASE take pics and post them and let me know. After seeing mountains like these I told some people I would love to go to CO! Maybe one day. Again please take pictures, please please please.

God Bless,
Amber

PS~ I'm sure in CO you can do the cake experiment. If you do it, let me know, the kiddies will love it!

Jan. 26, 2006 - Chicken noodle soup.

Posted by Bree
I am sorry this has nothing to do with your blog. I am answering your question on my blog. I do not have a recipe for the homemade noodles because my husband had the recipe in his head. I know a great link that may have the recipe, try www.hillbillyhousewife.com or go to www.flylady.net or www.allrecipes.com that is where I find most of my recipes. Hope this helps! Bree

Oh, the crazy things that happen in my house.... I am the wife of M for 8 years now. I am the mother of a 10 yo boy - D, 6 1/2 yo boy - N, 4 yo girl - Princess C, 2 1/2 yo boy -Toddler B, and girl Lil' L born May 18. I've been homeschooling since 2003. I lean towards a Charlotte Mason approach, but more often than not, it's "whatever works".
