School stuff

This weekend I got to attend (kinda) a home school conference here in Fresno. I went off and on and attended a couple sessions but mostly looked at curriculum for Elizabeth for next year. And bought some. It was fun. Friday night Luke and I both went and looked and talked a lot about what we saw and liked/didn't like. Then today I went back and bought some stuff. I'm thankful that I didn't spend too much money. Just bought basic stuff like phonics, writing, math. And a couple of 1st grade level books in science and American history because Elizabeth reads so well already. And she's been asking lots of questions about freedom. Anyhow, it was good and I'm excited about what I bought.

I also need to get on the ball registering her with Tower Christian School, which is a private homeschool group here in Fresno. (They have a website: towerchristian.com) That is exciting too. Elizabeth is very excited that she will be having school at home in the fall. She is a great learner.

Caleb is talking SOOO much these days. He also still needs lots of "big hug"s. A very favorite library book of his (which we've probably taken out 4 or 5 times lately) is called HUG. It's about a little monkey going around the jungle seeing all the baby animals hugging their mommies. Then he gets sad until his mommy finds him. And hugs him of course. Caleb loves it.

We're getting busier and busier these days. Then the baby..... Not long now!
