In my life this week... Lots of introspection, I am really feeling the positive effects from taking the Soul Restoration class. Some downtime, I have a huge knot in my back that I am having trouble with. Time for another chiropractor appointment. Decluttering, I finally got through the bookcases! We're down to just one big bookcase with a smallish one in every bedroom.
In our homeschool this week... Math is still the top subject here. Jack will go through 3 lessons a day if I let him. We've also been reading Good Morning Gorillas. Next week is the geography fair. Jack wants to do his project on the Congo river catfish (can you say River Monsters?).
Places we are going and people we are seeing... we had tennis this past week. Jack was also able to spend a good part of a day hiking with his dad and grandpa. Homeschool park day as usual on Friday.
My favorite thing this week was... Seeing Jack really enjoying our learning time. He was so excited over his math page and asking to do more when he saw them in my folder. It feels good to know that even the subjects that seem the most tedious are fun adn exciting for him.
What's working/not working for us... Not working--fitting science in on a regular basis. Now that we are getting into a comfortable routine with everything else, my main goal this coming week is science.
Homeschool questions/thoughts I have... Right now we are in a pretty good place with homeschooling, which never happens for us especially in January. It's nice! I feel good that he is enjoying it. Even if he starts out the day with the "Oh no not learning again!" plea, it only takes a few minutes and he is really, truly enjoying himself.
