TJ IS ONE SMART, LITTLE WIPPER-SNAPPER

This week in Kindergarten we are studying the 5 senses. We were doing a review this morning, and we learned the song, "Oh, be careful little eyes (ears, mouth, hands) what you see (hear, say, do)"...and I asked Connor how each "sense" could get you into trouble. He answered each one correctly, and then I asked what sense we left out. SMELL. And I explained that our "nose" couldn't really get us into trouble...TJ, however, spoke right up, "Yeah huh, when you pick your boogers you get into trouble!"

Yes, you sure do....all the kids have heard this week is, "GET A TISSUE!"

Can you tell we've been passing around a cold lately?

For Today...Tuesday, November 4, 2008

Outside my Window...falling leaves

I am thinking...about the election

From the learning rooms...turtle lapbooks, tabernacle study...not doing the project, the girls will make drawings instead, Kylie started Singapore Math 4A today

I am thankful for...healthy children

From the kitchen...vegetable soup and corn muffins

I am wearing...black yoga pants, Army t, an old pair of Brian's socks (these wood floors are cold!)

I am reading...Luke

I am hoping...the election is over tonight!

I am creating...a Charlotte Mason scripture memorization box

I am hearing...the dishwasher and Korinne flipping the pages of her bible

Around the house...some tidying up

One of my favorite things...mornings where I get some alone time to drink a cup of coffee and read my bible...my kids are totally off with the time change...they've gotten up before 6am the last 2 mornings!

A Few Plans For The Rest Of The Week...catching up on school (we took last Thursday and Friday off to visit with Brian's parents), planning some menus (yes, we've been eating, just not in an organized kinda way...more like "What do you want for dinner, Babe?" couple of weeks...yuck, I need to get it together!

Here is a picture thought I am sharing with you...Brian and Wesley putting the star on our Christmas Tree last year, our youngest baby puts the Star on...it's Benny's turn this year.Next year, hmmm...
