I took a day off from promoting my Native Remedies venture yesterday. It was a hundred degrees with no a/c, plus we had some family issues come up. I had to give myself a little break. The children were wonderful and let me sleep a good portion of the day.
Today we are back to a regular schedule. DS6 is working on his math (Rod and Staff). He's brilliant at math, but I think we might switch them to MathUSee. I got the free indroductory DVD and the children were captivated by it. I think understanding how math works is even more important than memorizing the facts.
I'm helping DS5 with a reading workbook while intermittently composing this blog entry. We are using Teach Your Child to Read in 100 Easy Lessons, but I use this workbook to supplement it and give him practice writing words.
DD2 is coloring (with frequent potty breaks because she has a new stool and can reach the sink, which is loads of fun.)
DD1 is having a Dada fit (she's been having little episodes of missing Dada during the day.)
DD3mos is sucking his fingers. He recently discovered how to hold a teething ring briefly, but favors his fingers.
Tonight is a honey-date, which I am looking forward to. My mom is going to come over at bedtime and sit for us.
