The school year is up and running! We had a bit of a bumpy start - we all got the stomach flu which circled through every member of our family. Not fun! Being sick sure makes you appreciate the healthy days!
We are beginning our 2nd year of homeschooling. Wow! Sure goes fast! Luke and Lana have been enjoying their math a lot this year. It has been fun to see them get excited about it, and even ask to do it on "non" school times. Asha has been really into sewing this year. Unfortunately, she has a mother who can hardly sew a button, so she has had to mostly self learn. She is excited though because she is taking a Home Economics class at our co-op where they will do some sewing. Jeffrey continues to love cars, cars and cars! Did I mention he loves cars? He has a box of cars that he carts around the house - though most of the time they are kept safely in his bed.
This year I am doing something new, which has been a bit of a stretch for me. I decided to teach a preschool class with Jeffrey and other 3 year old kids at the co-op we are involved in. Today was our second class, and I have to say I really love this age (for the most part)! Today we made alligator puppets to help them learn the letter "A". Jeffrey isn't too excited about "preschool", but at least he has a cool teacher. Ha ha!!
Below are a few pictures I took recently that I wanted to share because they make me smile and giggle whenever I look at them.
One afternoon Matt took care of Jeffrey while I took the three other kids to one of their co-ops. When we got home we found this in Jeffrey bed. They were out! Nose to nose! Jeffrey loves his Daddy!!
"Ho Ho Ho...Merry Christmas!" Bubble baths are a special treat at our house, and full of laughter!
Jeffrey on his scooter. He gets right in there with the "big" boys!
Luke is fast...with jumps and fancy twists with his scooter. I wish I had his energy!
Lana and Asha enjoy roller skating. They are very cute to watch!
Here is the street right near the park. One of my favorite views!
