We really had a pretty good first day of school. I think I might have loaded up Kelly a little bit too much, because she worked straight through until three (not including lunch) and still did not get everything done. Christian got everything done by around nine in the morning, but he had to redo quite a bit of work. One of the things he likes to do is find shortcuts. Instead of writing down answers, he draws arrows. We will work on that. We should be able to get all the workloads tweaked to something reasonable within a week or two. The kids have a summer piano lesson on Wednesday, so they will add piano practice to their plans starting on Thursday. Lorena is planning to sign them up for swimming lessons again starting after Labor Day so they will be getting plenty of exercise. It is great to be going again, but it will take a little while for a new organization to get worked out.
