Back to school
Joel wrote 2 essays they’re up under his page. He did 2 maths and a science and literature. Bethany did art, spelling, literature and history. Grace did a lot of math and Bethany read her language arts story to her. Hannah colored in her Dora book and threw blocks and balls all over the floor.
I got all my Jesses tree symbols printed out. This year I will follow the mantra ‘don’t re-invent the wheel’. That means I’m going to put the pictures on cardstock and save them for next year. I meant to do that last year, but I can’t find them now. I have all the readings for Advent and the tree, so I’m good to go. Our basement is halfway decorated for Christmas. I have lights and snowflakes up and some garland. I need more lights and some more garland though. Maybe we can go to the dollar store tonight.
I let James have the van so I wouldn’t be tempted to go running around this afternoon. We really needed to get caught up on school and clean up (I know I just cleaned up, but with 6 people in the house and 5 people in here all day long, it gets messy.) Tomorrow more school and maybe we’ll take a field trip somewhere in the afternoon.
