Good afternoon

Been a day.

Kids actually did quite well in reading today. And Zeria didn't cop a 'tude. Which made me VERY happy.
I let them do another scrapbook page. They LOVE doing them. Their not super fancy, mostly just the pictures glued to bright paper, and then what the pictures are written down. The two oldest are doing their own writing, I'm doing the youngest three.
I think next time I'll let them get a *bit* fancier. But first I need to sit down and sort out their pictures a bit more. Currently the three oldest are scrapping our 2001 Yellowstone trip. Which I don't think any of them actually remember. *snicker* Kaylin is all of 15 months old in the pictures.
I'm actually more current then that in their albums, but that was a roll of film that got rather lost and refound about a year ago. (oops) I'm putting year and or month on all the album pages and then when their done we'll sort them into a better chronological order.
Their not the fancy albums I wanted to do...but the kids love it...so I'll let it go and let them have fun.
I'm snagging certain pictures out and I think I'm going to do a album for myself out of their leftovers. I can't afford to get more copies of everything, so I'll just divide them more...which is what I'm going to be doing tonight when every one is in bed not bugging.
So far our schedule is working well. Its freeing, not dragging down. And things are staying caught up. *grin*
Tomorrow we're having Samuels birthday party. My kids get "real" parties on their odd years. So as Samuel's seven its his turn. He's soooooooo looking forward to it.
I have a couple tidy'ing things I'd love to do in the yard, but we shall see. And man I hope its nice tomorrow. All the games are planned for outside.
Other then that...life moves on. Rob is of course working...but its time and a half so this is good.

Sick person that I am, I love knowing that other people's kids cop tudes too. Everyone always says how eager to learn homeschooled children are, that when Scotlyn throws fits about hating to read or whatever, I feel like I must be a total screw up, since she's just naturally supposed to BEG to do school. But I'm glad that Zeria didn't give you a hard time today, just so long as she sometimes does, yk? LOL
I only do everyother year on bd parties too....if that! Chad's is this year. Pray for me - there are 62 people on his list!!!
Have a great day!
