Tomorrow(Monday 4/21) will be our second full week back to school.

It has been such a trying time. You may recall that on Easter Sunday, my husband broke his ankle in 2 places. It has been a LOOOONG journey. I guess we all have our struggles and heartaches that we deal with.

The neighbor who joins us for school seems to have a new lease on school. I am pleased the break suited him so well. I had already decided that I would not press him to answer (or make his answer better) when he has to type out a response. Also, I feel that he has gotten as much as he can from reviewing addition, subtraction, and phonics on the second grade level. He has not completely mastered those subjects as you would imagine a “normal” 12 year old would, but I don’t know that he will ever completely master them, so I figure just let him move up w/ the mastery he has achieved so I don’t frustrate him.

He seems happier and more relaxed so do I.
