We had another sweet day today, took it easy. The boys are being very sweet to me and very loving. They are so good. I have had hugs and kisses and Remy held my hand alot.
Remy says we should do school in bed everyday. He finished a whole days worth of work in about 10 minutes. He adores reading words with the letters he knows. And his writing work was as beautiful as always. He did some pattern work for fun and 2 math pages. On one of them he had a connect the dots to ten and it made the ark when he was done. His big smile was so cute. I think he finally realized that there is a rhyme and reason to those darn connect the dots. Ha ha!
Elijah and I did some reading today about a little dutch boy and then a little girl who grew up to start the American Red Cross. In the story it says when she was little that her parents didn't allow her to have toys but that she had many pets that she tended to. He told me at the end of the story that he thinks the time she had with the pets prepared her for the work of caring for hurt soldiers and people.
This just made me SMILE in big ways! I love that he got so much from it. What a big thinking boy I have! Wow!
He is working on a story about Jesus when he was a little boy. I gave him a little book that came with the abeka curriculum. It is about the time and place that Jesus would have grown up in. He has been reading and hurriedly writing away about this. Maybe research is his thing? Creative writing I know he can do, he just doesn't want to write down what he thinks. But he is very busy and on task with researching and jotting down what he finds interesting. Mmmmmm....
He wrote a little in his journal today, it was all about how crazy Remy is. his journal is usually about food or about how silly his brother is. Guess those two things are very important to him.
I only have a couple of more weeks to get the money together for his new curriculum. He and I are very excited. I bet Remy will want new books and finish his up EXTRA fast so he can have school boxes himself. :)
