Tuesday ~ Anne and I went out to lunch with a friend of mine who is homeschooling her young special needs student. We had a lovely discussion. I can't believe how close I am to being at the end of this journey. Talking to a mom who is negotiating first grade is shocking. It seems like yesterday. We then spent the afternoon doing end-of-year testing. We wrapped the day up with shopping. Each child was allowed one piece of clothing as their end-of-year treat.
Wednesday ~ We stayed home most of the day doing lots and lots of chores. I finally got the office/guest room under control. We also hosted a friend's children for the afternoon. Their father is in the hospital, and they needed a few hours to decompress from the all the stress that entails. They loved playing the game, Quelf.
Friday ~ Dean spent more time working on his mural. He hopes to finish on Sunday. We also went swimming and spent time organizing around the house. I am starting to see some progress!
What I am reading this summer ~
- Week 1 ~ $2.00 a Day: Living On Almost Nothing In America
- Week 2 ~ Your Water Footprint: The Shocking Facts About How Much Water We Use to Make Everyday Products
Blessings, Dawn
Oh such summer fun!... well perhaps not all the driving but the rest of it sounds fun.
ReplyDeleteIt's great the kids can follow their passions over summer without us having to worry whether it is eating into "school time" too much.
ReplyDeleteIt seems that I do more running around during the summer than I do during the school year. I'd love a week to lay around and do nothing. Sounds like you are busy too, but a good busy. Enjoy your summer break!
