We did our first day of school here.

I took no pictures.

It looked nothing like years past and I am okay with that.

That is where my family is at right now.

We did the second day of school with no pictures also.

Will I take pictures of our school?

I hope so.

My priorities have shifted right now and pictures are not near the top any more.

Work got done, kids learned something, and I took deep breathes.

What did your first day look like?

Was it different this year?

Not being pinterest worthy is okay.

Life is not always picture ready.

Hang in there.

Grammar Gumshoes

I don’t know if I would say that grammar is my weakest subject but it is definitely up there in the running…

We do things like Super Grammar and other fun things, here.

But I am always on the lookout for something that will help make learning all of those rules fun.

I found this game at the local second hand homeschool shop, Bibliomania.

The boys really liked it, even though it pretty much just asks you grammar questions and you move forward.

Not as much gumshoeing as I thought but they still liked it.

There are different levels of questions so I asked them the easy ones and they asked me the hard ones.

I lost.
