Kelly got a stomach ache in her gymnastics class and had to quit about half way through, the kids played outside after I got home for a little bit before we jumped into our home school work. Lorena made a wonderful dinner of chili and cornbread and then came up to study with us. It was a very nice day all in all.
I got to thinking that I have to be more efficient in the way I correct the kids work for the day and prepare their work plan for the next day. I raise the stress level a little higher than it needs to go. When I was talking to Kelly, she suggested that she and Christian could prepare their books on their work tables with sticky notes in the places that need to be corrected and the things we need to do together ordered so I can work on them one at a time. I talked to Kelly this morning and we are going to take a shot at doing just that for awhile.
Lorena is studying hard in her math class and I think she is going to do just fine. I was very impressed last night because she had a list of stuff with which she wanted help from me, but figured it all out herself while I was working on the kids stuff. The more she is able to learn for herself, the better she will have it.
