time for another year in homeschool!
how is it already that time?
we tried to fit in as much as possible this month because next month, with the baby coming, we might not get as much accomplished...
we have a 1st grader (what?!), a pre-k, and a pre-pre-k (2 year old).
technically, mv should only be in kinder and jack in 3 year old class but they are advanced so i moved them up. and they are doing beautifully!
we begin at 8:30 and go until noon. gabe is with us until around 10 and then my mom comes to take him for his morning walk (or reading time, if it's too hot) and the older boys and i get to focus a bit longer.
it's been challenging to have our barely-two-year-old in class with us but we'll work out the kinks!
we had a great first month back and can't wait to see what the Lord has in store for us this year!

the end of our summer reading fun!
he made it to 61 books in under 3 months! not too bad!
and we will keep going! he wants to see how long he can get his caterpillar ;) |
