lynn Posted August 23, 2012 Share Posted August 23, 2012 This is actually from yesterday dd was being lazy, I am very patient with lazy, she sent herself in the "principals office" (dh study) to do her work. Today she woke and ready to start school and be done for the day.:D We finished phonics, reading, poetry, language, arithmetic and science before 9:30A. We even made a banana chocolate chip bread for this afternoons snack. I love homeschooling! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nono Posted August 23, 2012 Share Posted August 23, 2012 My airy/3D-brained dd, this morning, got a 100 in the full review test I gave her of Singapore 2B, after 10 weeks off, and then 2 weeks of gentle review. HELLO Singapore 3A! My instinct that her brain just needs time to go "off duty" for the summer is proving correct for her. She needs the physical challenges of doing hard things, which I can better provide in the summer. It helps her think better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KatieJ Posted August 23, 2012 Share Posted August 23, 2012 Liz Curtis Higgs mentioned me by name in her live video broad cast yesterday. I had emailed her about getting an autographed copy of a book for my DD for Christmas, and mentioned that a friend and I were passing on a lunch outing and having tuna sandwiches while watching her live feed. She told everyone who was listening! I am still smiling today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plucky Posted August 23, 2012 Share Posted August 23, 2012 My 1-year old giant puppy ran a stranger off. He came in our backyard uninvited. Yeah, it was the water delivery guy all confused. We don't get water delivered. He's never, ever going to make that mistake again. I love that dog. She keeps her people safe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fairfarmhand Posted August 23, 2012 Share Posted August 23, 2012 the weather was gorgeous this morning. I went out into the cool morning, with each blade of grass strung with dewdrops. My cow came running to see me as the sun peeped over the horizon, in a sky of pink and orange. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soror Posted August 23, 2012 Share Posted August 23, 2012 Well, I slept well last night. F-i-l is watching the kids this afternoon- quiet time for mom, ya!!! Dh got his bonus and vacation payout from work today and it was even better than I thought it would be, I'm just thrilled about that.

Gentlemommy Posted August 23, 2012 Share Posted August 23, 2012 Yesterday-my dd7 (who has had a LOT of trouble reading due to vision issues) begged to read dd4's bedtime story. Then offered to read her three more. As we were going somewhere, she panicked and said "Wait!!! We can't leave! I need my book!" i had to tell her TWICE to stop reading and eat. My mama heart is swelling with pride for her. :001_smile: Today-afternoon TeA time with dh while kiddos watched a movie. :D:001_huh: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
