our first week of school

Wow, I am tired! We finished our first week today. For me it is usually the toughest one since it's hard to leave the summer routine behind and get into the books. I love teaching my kids but it requires discipline.

Grazzin is in 6th grade this year. He doesn't really care for school in general. Loves history and science, so I am thankful for that. I am going to try and post what curriculum we are using here in a couple of days for any of you that might be interested. I know that home school is an unusual concept to many in this area and are curious to know what it looks like. I'll be happy to give you a peek into our home! Home school is great

Mia started Kindergarten. She was thrilled! She's already been doing some school since last year ("just like Grazzin") so it hasn't been too much of a transition to get used to two children doing school. Now things might get interesting when we have the baby in November! lol

Kaci likes to get involved whenever she can. Otherwise she is content to play with her baby dolls and cook food in her little pretend kitchen.

Kaci likes to play with Mia's math linking cubes
