Distracted
I have confiscated all the Legos. I’m pretty sure I got them all. There are so dang many that it’s possible I missed some. Legos, so my boys tell me, distract them from doing what I ask. So do balls and trucks and green grass and blue skies and siblings and anything not the task […]

Character
Tonight our homeschool group is having the end of year banquet where each child is awarded a character certificate by their parents. This is the first year we’ve done this, so I was sure what to do. Most families focus on a spiritual virtue in which their child has grown. Talking with MTG, it didn’t […]

Making progress
We’re halfway through spring cleaning week (spring break is for the weak!), and we’ve made decent progress. Yesterday we worked in the garden. I didn’t tackle the disaster from the plumbing kerfuffle because I’m going to need some muscle in the form of MTG to handle the clay mess. Ugh, Texas clay, I loathe thee. […]

February dolldrums
Among homeschoolers, February has a reputation for being the worst month ever. Whatever resolutions we’ve made have been broken; momentum is stalled; it’s cold and dark and miserable. Ugh. February. Last week we were out of town for the first of the week. The first day after a road trip is pretty much useless for […]
