Beginning

We have officially started homeschooling. We had planned to started yesterday, but the head teacher (I am thinking of myself as a student teacher for now) woke up not feeling good so we postponed the first day.

It worked out good because we had some running around to do and doctor check ups. Which, I had promised the big girls no shots because we had done them all a couple weeks ago, or so I thought. Sahara was just along for the ride and she even had to get another one. Again, they were very brave, no fussing- they just got it done. In fact, Sahara and Bria set such a good example that Tirza didn't even fuss when she got her shot.

Anyways, so today was our first day of school. We did journals, learned about Ancient Egypt, started charting our weather, very fun! Sahara and Bria did great, they were excited to be using all their new school stuff and learning new things. Tirza on the other hand seemed determined to crash our attempts at doing anything. We let her color, gave her a folder, let her read books- she is not ready for school! So we did most of the work during nap time and thankfully 3 days a week we will be with Allie and the girls. One momma can teach and one momma can occupy the little girls:)

So one day done 179 to go!
