A New Year...

Hard to believe 2007 is here already! This year, C.J. will turn FOUR, and C.O. will be SIX! Incredible how fast the years go by...

We spent New Year's Eve at W's house, as planned. We had a barbeque (thankful that the weather cooperated), and at midnight lit off fireworks. Both kids made it to 12 to help ring in the New Year. It was an uneventful but very pleasant evening!

Today C.O. worked on math - doing 2 pages of regular work, and a one page drill on addition, doubles up to 9. He also worked on a page from Easy Word Families, and 2 pages from HM Phonics. While he was doing this, C.J. practiced counting with Magnetix, wrote the number 2 several times, and worked on a review page of the letters A-D (mostly coloring). Then I read a book on ants to both of them. Right now they are watching "Alice In Wonderland" as both a reward for good schoolwork, and to rest after a hectic hour and a half of scooter time!

    Are you going to the field trip today? I was thinking maybe we could get together sometime and compare resources while the kids play, I mean wrestle. ;) I was also thinking of maybe organizing a Classical Convention (or some other, more catchy name) and putting it in the newsletter so all of us who are aiming in that direction could swap ideas and methods. Do you think that would be fun or just awkward, lol?

    See you today, Friday, or next Tuesday. :)
