The morning homeschool checklist worked well enough yesterday that the Christian and Kelly want me to do another one for the afternoon. Everything really went pretty well for the first day back after a long break. We forgot one thing (Spelling Power), but generally performed pretty well on everything else. I will not be able to get to the afternoon checklist until tomorrow, but I think it is a super idea.

We got a call last night from a piano and guitar teacher who we will visit on Friday afternoon to see whether we would like her to teach Kelly and Christian for the rest of the year. I found her on the Richardson Music Teachers Association website. The reason we started by calling her is that she was the only person on the list that teaches both piano and guitar. Christian will be making the big switch to guitar right now. She recommended that we wait for her to help us find a good guitar because Lorena and I know so little about music. I am excited that the kids are getting back into music.
