Return to normal?

We had high hopes today of returning to some sort of normalcy after the hectic pace of the holidays. We tried our darnest, but ended up learning one thing. The only thing normal after a hectic holiday is the need to sleep. We kept talking about getting up and doing a project and that is all we got done. Did a lot of talking...but nothing else.

It was a unusually warm day, so we played aroung outside with the dogs and Retta worked on her new archaeology dig kits that she got for Christmas. She managed to uncover one little bone. Amazingly, she kept her patience about her.

Musa has been busy mastering the playstation. He has had so much fun.

I sent off for some information about a new umbrella school I am going to use instead of going to the county reviews. I received an answer back immediately and am looking forward to a more supportive review environment for myself and the kids. Maybe now I can start helping them learn what they choose instead of teaching them what the county mandates.

It is a learning process for me...
