I haven't needed one. My oldest is in the 6th grade book.

Dd 11: flip flops, some type of chocolate-she likes the good stuff
Ds7: play-doh, some type of sour candy, stuffed animal
Dd 5: crayons, jelly beans, stuffed animal

I allow fruits and veggies anytime. We'll have some cheese or peanut butter and crackers in the afternoon, but it's not an everyday thing. Sometimes they have frosted wheat cereal as a bedtime snack if we had supper earlier than usual.

I have nothing to add except that I read the subject as "Emergency Mouth Control."

Mine's up. There's also a link to more photos.
My blog link is in my signature.

I said 13, but I don't count nail polish. If she needs to camouflage a pimple, I'll allow that earlier. My dd11 has shown no interest at all. It's my dd5 that I will have to reign in. She's forever getting into my meager supplies.

My kids enjoy this one though it may not last long enough for you. They have only played the free trial, so the full version may have more.

Sorry if this has been posted. We just got our power back.
Yesterday a series for tornadoes devastated several communities in central and eastern NC. Many homes and businesses were destroyed. Several have lost their lives.

The viewer submitted photos tell the tale.
I am so thankful that my family is safe and we no damage. We lost power before the warnings went out, so I didn't know how bad it was until this morning.
Please pray for those who are hurt, who have lost their homes, and those who are working to rescue and repair.

FLL 3 was not available when my oldest was ready for third grade, so we went with Rod and Staff. I agree that there is too much "busy work" writing. We did a lot of R & S orally. I also bought the workbook and substituted the worksheet for the lesson when possible.
-
We are testing this week. I tried to attach the schedule, but the file was too big. Sending you a PM.
-
There is writing in Rod and Staff English 3 and it is probably enough. However my dd did not like the assignments. We ended up skipping over the R & S writing assignments and using Writing Tales.

Fantasy: Crafts, nature study complete with journals, field trips, working together, reading great books aloud with classical music in the background, rows of WTM style binders filled with illustrated narrations
Reality: Exhaustion, ADHD, battles of wills, lost books, screaming and fighting among the siblings, trashed house, whining over doing any type of school work
OK, I'm depressed now.

This morning I found the following message in my inbox. I have edited the names and places.
Hey Mrs. XXXXXX
I know this is out of the blue but I owe you an apology for the way I acted in your classes at ABC School. I treated you with disrespect and caused chaos in your classroom and for that I am truly sorry. I don't know why I was such a brat! When I saw that you were friends with Former Student Y and Former Student Z on facebook, I knew that was my chance to contact you. I hope you accept my apology.

Former Student
I taught this student more than 10 years ago. I don't remember her as much of a trouble maker. She talked too much and tried to be a class clown on occasion. Mainly, I remember her as a student who didn't work up to her potential. She would make an A on a test or project and then barely scrape by the rest of the grading period.
I share this to remind us that we touch lives where ever we go. Teenagers can grow up, look back, and regret. My heart is humbled.

:party:Congratulations! I'm hoping my dd5 starts soon.

My oldest is in the 6th grade book. It doesn't seem to be very different from the fifth grade book except for the writing. There is more emphasis on report writing. We've been doing Rod and Staff English since the third grade and there is a lot of repetition. I would just move slowly through the 6th grade book since you already have it. We also do many of the assignments orally. Rod and Staff is written for a classroom and there is a lot of busy work writing.

I prefer paper for reference. I flip through my copy of WTM a lot. Searching for something specific on the Kindle is cumbersome.
-
Maybe they could get all the possible dog fathers on Maury's show.
My neighbor would fit right in, but I think I would be a bit out of place.
I can hear it now. "Doggie, you are not the puppies daddy." :lol::lol:
-
Because of this, the OP might want to have the paperwork handy proving her dog is fixed, including the date. I might even give the neighbor a copy now so when his dog has puppies he hopefully won't stir up trouble with the OP.
Now that's a piece of paperwork I didn't think of needing to keep. I do have the receipts from his vet visit in January that list him as a neutered male.

Mine is up. The kids were playing dress-up. Link is in my signature.

We enjoyed these:
Little House Series
Mr. Popper's Penguins
Babe: The Gallant Pig
anything by E. B. White
I may think of more later.

Well said.

Oh, I can beat yours. While walking my male dog on a leash down the street, I had a lady let her dog out the front door and he came and started *edited* my dog. The lady then proceeded to come out of her house and scream at me about walking my dog down the street while she was in heat. I tried very calmly to explain that my dog was a BOY. She called me a liar and continued ranting.
:lol:

We love the game. Everyone plays except for the five year old.

The cocoon is fine just the way it is. It doesn't need any yarn.
