Back to School

Here we are one week into the new school year- a bit modified at this point but school all the same.
If I am honest, I will say some days I love this homeschooling thing.  Other days I am pretty sure we have lost our minds.  Time will tell!

Jack is beginning Classical Conversations'  Challenge program.  A challenge it will be.  It's a lot of work and I am excited for him.  I think it will be a year of great growth for him.
The rest of us get back to CC in two weeks.  I am tutoring Essentials this year, which is the grammar and writing program.  I am super excited about this.  We have benefited so much from our three years in Essentials, and I am looking forward to helping other families along the way.

We are not completely out of summer mode yet, though.  I just can't do it.  We have hit the pool in the afternoons when the weather cooperates.  We went to a VT pre-season soccer game one evening- Go Hokies!  There has still been time to play with friends and read on the porch. 

For this particular evening, it's blueberry cobbler with vanilla ice cream for dessert.  A little reading and then off to bed.
Have a good night!
