I don't think that reads as less, especially with her extracurriculars. Just different. Does she like the writing you are doing? Pros/cons? -

The only thing different really is adding on either the extra history workbook or the writing strands. He needs more writing, but I'm not sure where to add that where it makes the most sense for him. He loves history, so I thought maybe there, but he might revolt if I mess with his favorites. Science -we do a lot of science, and he asked for more hands on next year. I'm okay with that. I'm thinking lose the handwriting and history workbook. Do the writing strands and incorporate handwriting into that. Art and coding are only a few days per week. Hmmmm. Oh, and the German is what we have for this year, spread out over 2 years, so it's not as strenuous as it sounds. 15-30 minutes per day at most. -

German - because that's what I know, and I think starting a foreign language early is good for the brain. DS likes it well enough, but knows he can change to something else later on if he really wants to. Like high xchool. Maybe. LOL MCT is the whole program. We're doing MCT know, and he's really liking it. The Grammar was just what I had it under on my spreadsheet. I just come away feeling that it's not enough of the how to instruction that DS needs. We'll see as the year progresses. I've seen a lot of reviews where people add on writing and spelling. I may not need the writing, but I do feel like DS is weakest in writing right now. BW style wouldn't work here. Loving BA. Yes, you need the workbooks. The MiF workbooks would just be when I see he needs extra practice. They would not be a Must. Get. Done. -

I think I'd rather spend 5 hours/day on ITT talking about ITT stuff, than on FB talking about cats. And I am a cat person. 5 hours/day? #aintnobodygottimeforthat -

Could she be hiding it? Did you leave it at work? On the floor of he backseat of the car that isn't running? Fell behind the fridge? Under your mattress? In the laundry basket? -

We're watching really bad karaoke on Apple TV. It's funny. I had a Nerf war with DS earlier. We're both dead now. -

My DS is allergic/intolerant to citric acid (preservative), but not citrus. It is definitely possible. Can't explain the grapefruit aspect for you, though. Nobody here likes it, so we don't buy it/never had to factor that in.

I could watch Sherlock on another tv and join them late, but have decided against this. Because family time. The boys aren't into Sherlock, and I kind of like it that way. It's 90 minutes of me time. :)
