Shannon,
You’re too sweet and made me laugh this morning. Yes, we’ll get through the geography plan, but it will be our big focus. Besides that we’ll have science, math, literature, and a mix of fine arts. Writing will generally come from writing about something we read in geography or history, with lots of oral narrations for most of the kids.
Yes, I sleep, usually from about 10:30pm – 6:00am, with a few awake times with little men. I get blogging done in spurts, scheduling some posts ahead of time so it seems I have more regular time than I do. I cook simple meals, the kids help. And I really love what I do!
You’ll notice that list is missing a lot of things because I don’t do them. I don’t do field trips every week. I don’t cook anything fancy. I never iron, mop about once every six months, and the kids do most chores while I oversee and train the littler chore helpers. I don’t go to the gym, have crafty hobbies like scrapbooking that take time, or have a job besides mothering these precious children. My kids are not in sports and don’t have activities multiple days/nights per week. (As a matter of fact the only activity night is Tuesday.) We’re not in a co-op. None of these things are bad, they just don’t fit in my life!
Enjoy the book lists!
