I think I'd like to start a journal inshallah of things that the Boy liked. I will inshallah ask him each friday what he liked doing during school time that week and add my own notes. Maybe when we can buy some paper I will have him draw pictures of what he liked. Right now the only blank paper i have is consrtuction paper and not much at that. But alhumdulillah we have the chalboard and even some sidewalk chalk.

I think this week he really enjoyed cooking, playing in the dried peas and the harfun lap book.
