Mixed feelings about today.
Beau did well; we started the new
Science book (whoot, whoot!), which was pretty exciting, and kept on
with everything else. We might finish the math book some time this
century. I kid, of course. It just feels like we have so far
left to go and the “official”
start of third grade is coming up so soon.
I had wanted to be done with this book. I chalk it up to my own
suckiness as a homeschooling parent. And we'll finish when we
finish. We do two worksheets a day at present, which is a good pace
for us. Beau seems challenged but not frustrated, so I'm going to
call it success. We'll finish this book when we finish it and (the
plan is) to plug through with math even when we're taking breaks from
other things so that we finish the next one in plenty of time for
fourth grade...and oh,
God, fourth grade is looming in the distance. Ew.
Moving
on quickly.
Usually
Explode the Code is super fun for everyone involved.
Today...well, just
blah. There were distractions. Kids were fighting in the
background. We compromised and did about half of what we usually do.
Both Xander and Bella struggled and there were many buzzing bees to
be had.
But I am totally
taking it. Daddy is home today...who can concentrate when Daddy is
home? Also, it's totally Saturday. And nice outside. And the pool
is beckoning.
So we are taking
today and calling it a success. Education was had by all.
Now, let's go
swimming.
