“They should give us our money back! This is too easy!” Toby yells. He has started his new math workbook, the 4B. It starts off with decimals, and it took Toby about 2 minutes to finish the first exercise. I know better than to try to take Toby’s math book back, though. Lately, he and his math book have been inseparable.
Elsie has started into her new workbook, too (the 2A), and is pleased to be learning new things.
Yesterday, I came down with some kind of cold, or flu, or maybe a bad reaction to excessive reading aloud of “The Little Engine that Could.” (”The Little Engine that Could” is Peter’s favorite book right now…) I’m feeling a bit better today, which is good, since I had to go and get our new parakeets. A former homeschool family was giving them away to a good home, since their children now attend PCS and are not able to spend as much time with the birds as before.
We are very excited to have the parakeets as part of our family! Moriah is taking feeding, watering, and seed vacuuming responsibilities. I will be doing the cage cleaning and training. Moriah’s budgie is blue and white, and is named Stormy. My budgie is green and yellow, and I have named it Glory.
