Wow, can you believe it's already 2007? Time sure goes quickly, but since we've begun homeschooling it speeds by at a rate NASCAR would envy.
We celebrate Christmas here in our home and had a lovely holiday break from everything but loved ones and good times.
Right now we are swinging back into rhythm with homeschool. Toughie is still dragging his feet when it comes to math, but Roughie is back in the groove and moving forward like a trooper.
This week we will start up pilates (they have enough sports, but need some indoor exercise since it's so cold they cannot play outside without getting frostbite--eek). Figure it might help work off some of their cabin-fever energy. As a treat we might go visit grandma on Tuesday. The rest of the week will be fun. For home-ec we are going to bake a cake (they will learn) for their daddy's birthday this weekend! They are very excited. Toughie loves to cook, just learned to make french toast over Christmas break, his daddy taught him so it was a great bonding experience.
Dad gave me a break today to do some necessary deep cleaning--he taught the boys their lessons. I am so blessed to have a spouse to share the duty from time to time. We are in the process of decluttering our entire house. Today was my "office nook" with all the papers that accumulated. We are recycling as much as possible through the normal phases and also through donations and FREEcycle.com. If you've not used them before, it's a great organization and you should log in and check out your local area.
We have a full week ahead of us and now that things have calmed down, I'll be back more often.
