Okay, so it's September 12th, 2008. Friday is here. We always love the weekends in our house. Craig is home, no work....no school, it's just relaxing. I remember when I was young we had like a family fun night, where every other weekend (I can't remember now if it was Friday or Saturday night) Scott and I got to take turns picking what we were going to do that night. We got to pick from a list of 8 things: hike on the rims (the cliffs around Billings, MT) rent a movie, roller skate, bowling, game night...I can't remember the rest....I loved it! It is a highlight of my childhood. Scott, don't you remember that? So fun!
The reasaon I titled this blog "School-part deux" is because after a week of homeschooling, I threw in the towel. I would never think of myself as a quitter, but I'll be honest it was tough making this decision because of the "quitter" label that was floating over my head...in my own mind of course. But, upon much prayer and consultation on the subject, Craig and I decided to give school for Jack a try. So, now both the boys are at Tri-Unity Christian Elementary. We were given a scholarship for tuition so that helped us to feel more comfortable financially with the decision. It was a really hard decision; all-day is a lot for Jack, but after 4 days, Jack seems to be enjoying it and his teacher, Mrs. Nagelkerk, said yesterday was a "great" day. We are taking it a month at a time and will evaluate Jack's state of mind and academic progress in that manner.
Sorry no pictures: I'm having trouble with my USB hook-up. Maybe next time. Please feel free to leave comments! Love you all!
