Every day a new start

Okay, so I did not post yesterday or the day before, but here I am today.  Wednesday was a homeschool day away from home.  Esther went to help Celia with babysitting and the boys and I went to Centralia to put up the sign at the Cultural Building for the Bell Choir concert and then went to run at Foundation Park.  Fun!!  They did math in the morning so all in all they have done 5 lessons this week.  We made it through the first week of Writing with Ease, not stressing memorization as much as last year because it made it not fun.  Made it through the first lesson in Latin and so far, so good.  Taking it slower and easier.  Have not heard from Compass Classroom about Esther's Latin.  During worship we chose hymns this week, recited commandments 1-3, worked on psalm 84.  Next week, start the Bible readings and Questions begun last year.  Figure out specific hymns to learn.  Really neat tonight during prayer time Ruth chose Let Our Gladness Have No End to sing.  Have not sung that in YEARS but she remembered when we worked on it before I even taught 1st and 2nd grade at Hoffman.  Amazing the things they remember.  After she jarred my memory, I remembered it too.  Thursday I got called in to work at the library, so the kids did some stuff on their own.  Today we started again.  Boys are cooking on spelling.  Need to start reading a book with them.
