6.2.09

simply drawn out . . .

I haven't been on here in forever and I had a few minutes so I wanted to fix it up a little and now I've been sucked in.  Oh well.  

Life is fine here.  Bennett is doing really well in school.  His big disappointment is the B he got in Anatomy.  I am so glad he loves Science.  I hate it.  I will definitely have to have the kids take science classes or have Bennett teach those courses.  I think I am still bitter because my 3rd grade teacher taught evolution and was soo convincing, or I was soo gullible, that I ran home (we lived a block from my elementary school) to tell my mom the exciting news that we evolved from apes.  I don't think I will ever forget the look on my Mom's face as she explained that Christianity and evolving from apes didn't fit together.  I have always been one to hold a grudge and that science teacher really pulled a fast one on me.

Alanna is doing awesome at home and at Home Connections.  She has class with 8 other students and really enjoys it.  Nathan loves when he gets to tag along.  I don't know how we'll do next year but I am learning that homeschooling takes lots of research, is very freeing, potentially expensive, and fun.  

Luke and Nathan are . . . two very active little boys.  We have turned our 'formal' living room into a ball room.  I think living in Washington warrants a ball room.  They are good at keeping the tackling, kicking, and throwing to that room.  Since it is void of everything but soft plastic balls-I am ok with that.
