First, I'll say, "No, Jesse's room is still not finished." We still need a hang a couple of things, then we'll be done. She loves it though and, truly, that is what matters.
Today was interesting. I think all of our days are interesting (John disagrees, but that is another story), but today was especially fun. Today was our last day of summer, with just the girls and myself. We celebrated, or consoled (depending on your point-of-view), ourselves with Tiffany's for breakfast. Then we relaxed for awhile. Well, until the bread slicer machine went nuts and made an incredibly high-pitched shriek that startled everyone in the building. They got it fixed; I think it just wanted extra attention today. lol
A homeschool friend met us there. She wanted me, and my A-type brain, to look over her homeschool schedule she made. It was beautiful!! So many colors! I told her I had tried to schedule our lives like that a few years ago. We failed miserably, but I think she is going to do great. So long as her almost two-year-old goes along with the plan. I told her Monday (their first day of school) will be the day he figures out how to crawl out of his crib by himself. She laughed, but agreed. That just seems to be the way our lives go, as homeschoolers; you work so long for the perfect plan, then a child has his own (throws a monkey wrench into everything!). LOL
We are almost ready for school. The girls and I finished cleaning the classroom this afternoon. They also took out all their papers from last year and set-up their notebooks for this coming year. I still need to finish up their paperwork from last year and get it mailed, but I think I am finally ready to start the year. Last night I typed in the science schedules for both 4th and 6th grade. I have finished the reading lists, and even picked the books up from the library. I am ready to go! I just wish the girls were. ;)
