Why I am not a good blogger anymore!

Well I thought I should explain why my blogs have been few and far in between lately! I have been homeschooling Brianna this year. Wow, it keeps me very busy. We have good days and bad days but all in all it is going well. We are doing a cyber school so they provide all the curriculum. She also has regular sessions with a teacher one on one and group time with other third graders. We do about 3 or 4 hours a day. She is much happier now. I can't believe the difference in her. I really enjoy her company. She is also such a good little student. It is really exciting to watch her learn a concept. She is so smart! Since she has a little more free time she has gotten much better at playing the piano (she practices better now) and she also joined a traveling homeschooling theatre. They learn plays and then perform them at schools and nursing homes. In the current play she is Gretel. She really enjoys that. She has also been cooking and sewing and really loves this. Last week she sewed a purse all by herself. Her favorite part of homeschooling is the school store. When she is working hard she gets tokens and then redeems them once a week at the school store! This has worked well for little Brian too! Next year I am thinking of putting her and Brian in a Charter school but we will see! I never thought I would be the kind of mom to do homeschooling but we knew it was best for her this year. This is a pic of her doing her work. She loves to have food when she is working!
