So I'm feeling better! Yay! :) I was stuck on the couch for longer than I can remember being in the past. Adam took care of most things and made me rest....at least for the first 24 hours. After that, he pretty much just let the natives roam free. :) I'm still dealing with some discomfort but it's so much better than it was.
School has been going well this week. We're rowing The Tale of Peter Rabbit by Beatrix Potter. Adisson's really interested in it. We purchased the Fold-N-Learn from Five in a Row as well and he's had a ball today "speaking British"! In the FNL it gives some examples of British words and what we call the same thing (i.e., loo means bathroom, etc.). The fun part is that Adam's got a few cousins that live in England so he remembers some of the things he's heard them say and I managed to remember some words from their last visit (six years ago, that's been too long!). Adisson's been chuckling about it all day. I was trying to get more than one math worksheet done each day, because we had fallen behind, but I'm actually grateful that we'll be able to continue working on his math through the summer...so as not to lose the foundation of facts we've been building on. So now that we're back to one math worksheet and doing only FIAR, 3 R's, and Bible study, our days are so nice and relaxed. :)
I keep wanting to work on some Tot School goodies for Zander but haven't got my act together yet. He does a lot of neat stuff, but I want to do more things on purpose. We'll be doing Before Five in a Row next year with Zander (he's really not ready for it yet) and I'm excited to purchase all the B4 FNL's and then other lapbooking goodies from Homeschool Share. I'd love to have it all ready to go by August.
Tomorrow's April Fool's Day and I have some neat ideas in mind for my boys. I'll hopefully be able to post pictures of my little tricks. :)
