Lorena took her first test for Intermediate Algebra last night and we think she did well. Only two more and she is home free. Lorena dropped the kids off at their gymnastics class in the afternoon at about 4:00 and went on to take her test at the LBCC Benton County campus in Corvallis. I picked up the kids after I got off work at 5:00. We went home, cooked and ate some omelettes, then started in on our home school work.

Lorena was still not home by 7:15 so we started to get worried. Kelly even started to cry a little because she had had to turn off her cell phone when she started the test and we could not call her. At 7:30, we all got into the pickup to go look for her. We got all the way from North Albany to in front of the Safeway on Circle Blvd. before we saw her coming our direction. She took THREE HOURS taking the test, but the good thing was that she was OK and thought she had done fairly well on the test. Really, if she gets through this and one more math class, she will never need to take another to get a very good degree. She will have to take a class in statistics, but that is more memorization than mathematical manipulation.

Kelly did a super job of doing all of her school work and organizing it for me to correct. Christian was not able to get everything done, so it was not very organized. We will have to work on that some. For some reason it seems like Christian has somewhat of a heavier load than Kelly right now. I am still working on balancing everything out.
