Last night it was nice to just stay home with the family for the evening with nothing much to do other than homeschool. We read Whatever Happened to Penny Candy, did our Spelling Power, ate dinner together around the kitchen island, corrected the other homework, and then went to bed. I went to bed early last night because I have been getting up so early for work and had a very late night the night before. One of the gifts we received this year was deck of “Rook” cards. When Kelly was babysitting at Greg and Alexa’s house, Christian and I started learning how to play two man Rook. It was a lot of fun. It will take several sessions, but I think that is going to be our next “listening to classical music” project. We will have to play a three person game because I do not think we can convince Lorena that she wants to play. It will be fun, though, and when we have Rook playing company, we will be all set for a foursome. I think Kelly and Christian will enjoy it.
Christian finished his first set of rocks with his rock polishing set. The came out awesome! I will take a picture of the key chain he made me and put it up here. We need to get some more good rocks and polishing sand so he can keep going.
