You don't need to do anything else!<BR/><BR/>Plus, they're going to be learning all about spatial relationships as they pack up everything, unpack everything, and fit into a new house.

I'm trying to get mine back in the swing of school too, but not happening as good as I would like or maybe I'm expecting too much. Well, anyways it don't matter since we don't have a schedule to keep up like in Public schooling. oooh! That sounded as good as your Ordinary Time!

It is so incredibly disturbing, of course that could be because I'm a proud Mac owner too. (actually, we have 2 Macs. Brewer has some sort of PC laptop from work but I like to pretend like it doesn't exist) <BR/><BR/>Holy cow, reading about your schooling makes me feel like such a slacker. Right now I'm spending my days just trying not to feel sick ;) but once we get moved, I think I will finally have 3 kids who are all actually ready for some formal-type work. I'm actually excited about the thoughtchipperhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11063520094539344254noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18952856.post-75370259030242353392008-01-08T08:53:00.000-08:002008-01-08T08:53:00.000-08:00March is St. Patrick's Day, which means Irish Danc...March is St. Patrick's Day, which means Irish Dance performances several times per week. St. Louis has 2 St. Patrick's Day parades, and we will be in at least 1 of them. Our dance school is in both. I think we're supposed to help make the float.<BR/><BR/>Also, the Junior Scout leader decided that I should lead the first meeting in March, and provide snacks for the second. Unlike Ami, I can't just show up at Scouts and run a meeting; I need hours and hours to stew about it. I would ask to change to different dates because of conflicts with St. Patrick's Day performances, but I ALWAYS ask to do things differently, and I think the poor woman is starting to dread talking to me. So I'm planning to be a martyr about it.<BR/><BR/>And let's not forget Easter. We will either need to spend time shopping for Easter dresses and shoes (ugh, I hate shopping for clothes, but the kids keep outgrowing everything) or else make new outfits. And all the other Easter falderal.GailVhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00683604946670542961noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18952856.post-47423926080839747062008-01-08T08:24:00.000-08:002008-01-08T08:24:00.000-08:00I love your re-cap.

And I realize that it's a good thing kids & moms grow into the education process. <BR/><BR/>So...what happens in March? Is that when dance performances/competitions and piono recitals ect. collide?kmhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02659183247879049382noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18952856.post-68762384627763153532008-01-08T07:03:00.000-08:002008-01-08T07:03:00.000-08:00I read recently that by the time homeschooled kids...I read recently that by the time homeschooled kids are college age, it doesn't seem to matter whether they were unschooled, classically educated, or some combination of thousands out there. I'm glad I read that, because otherwise, I might feel just a little inadequate as a homeschooling mom after reading all that you're doing.<BR/><BR/>::bowing low and sweeping off hat to you:::<BR/><BR/>Amazing.Amihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08353667980806676067noreply@blogger.com
