I'm not making the attempt to just jump back into school this year. I am using the next few weeks as kind of a "test run" as the kids call it. This week we go back to early wake up calls, no t.v., computer, video games or phones during the day, early bed times...you know, all the stuff that sucks the fun right out of summer. It's a good thing too, as one of us did have a little meltdown and required an hour hike to put things in perspective. The kids have started slowly easing back into using their brains-Xan has started Life of Fred Fractions, which he is loving, and he's done some reading and Dover coloring books. Leena has started The Lively Art of Writing and How to Study for College. Things are looking good and moving in the right direction.
