Squirt guns in March - - Sleds in April! Amazing, isn't it? Hard to believe also that another week has come and gone. We've been trying to get back into a schedule after our holiday crazies, and that has mostly gone pretty well. In homeschooling, the boys are doing literature together for the first time this spring, all reading the same book and then discussing and doing several related writing assignments. The last one just finished reading their book "A Wrinkle In Time" yesterday. Hooray! As that was one of my favorite books growing up, I'm really looking forward to some great discussions this coming week. I'm thinking about what activities to use in our April time travel to the Revolutionary War. I want to do some calligraphy and read the Declaration of Independence - one of those things that I've actually never done myself either, so it will be a new experience for all of us. We'll have to find some timely recipes again too. That beefsteak pie that we made for our Pilgrim day has become a family favorite and we've had it more than once since. April is swiftly disappearing though, so I'd better hurry up and just do something rather than getting bogged down in planning, which is my usual M.O. My sister from Minnesota dropped by Thursday morning on her way through town and we had a wonderful visit, even if way too short! And that's all the news from the Kaether Homestead, where all the women are strong, all the men are good looking, and all the children are above average. ;) |
