I was BUSY

When I woke the kids up this morning Jimmy yells, STOP it...don't wake me up...I was BUSY!

A Big Day For Jimmy

A big day for Jimmy.

He's known how to read for quite awhile. But he would always get overwhelmed by a page full of words. He would also get frustrated that he couldn't read as fast as Mommy and Daddy.

But today he read all 63 pages of the book, The Cat In The Hat. He did so great! I'm so proud!

Too Much TV

My back was hurting and I tell my 7-yr-old son Jimmy, "My back hurts, what should I do?" He tells me "I think you should get a number bed...but I think it's too much moneys...but you must because your back hurts." I think he's seen too many commercials. :-)

I love homeschool!

I love homeschool! I never have to force the kids to do some assigned homework. Two Saturdays ago, Peter found a folder of math worksheets. He asked me if he could do one. Then Jimmy said he wanted to do one too. They had a lot of fun! For the last two days Peter has washed the dishes...just because he wanted too.

I'm your favorite

It's funny, sometimes my husband will ask the kids "Who's your favorite, Mommy or Daddy?" Lately Peter turns around and says, "I'm your favorite Daddy."

McTroll

My kids call remote controls, "McTroll" Makes me smile every time.

See No Evil, Speak No Evil, Hear No Evil

Getting Cold

It's kinda fun having it get cold. This last week I bought the kids long pants, and jackets. It's been a long time since I've had to do that. The kids think it's fun too

Bad Dreams

The kids were a little upset when they woke up this morning. They said they had bad dreams. Jimmy said he dreamt that all his friends were 8 and he was 7. Peter said he dreamt that he was naked and people were laughing at him.

I thought it was interesting...those are the bad dreams that everyone has in some form or another.
