Week in Review
Homeschool is still going great. Blake is a different kid compared to last year. He was so unhappy and down on himself last year and this year is relatively happy. He still has his moments but for the most part gets up and is ready to do school, doesn't get stressed when he doesn't know everything and is enjoying time with Kira and his friends. It is so nice that Kira and Blake are homeschooling together. It makes it easier to get work done when you are doing it with someone. So much to be grateful for. I really think it was the quality time we had this past year, influence of Come Follow Me and just being a little more mature.
We met with their advisor on Monday which was positive. Jen took Blake and Kira to the pool because I was meeting with someone about running a swim clinic. They had fun, then Kira had her crafting group which she enjoys. On Tuesday we got to go to Water World again before it closes for the season which is always fun. Grateful for friends who have passes to get us in. It was so hot so we went to the pool which is always amazing. We always go with a friend but she was on vacation so I was lonely without my friends. LOL! We did a fun science lab this week which Blake loved seeing the reaction of water and vinegar with different household items. Overall, it was a great week with the kids.
Scott and Tyler both made Drumline which is exciting. Tyler made snare and Scott made Bass. Scott was pretty bummed he didn't make snare drum but he doesn't do drums at school and only 3 people get to do snare and he is busy with Volleyball so he can't even make it to a lot of the practices. We have had a lot of talks about how he should be grateful he made drumline and so many kids didn't make it. He thinks he should only have tried out for snare and then maybe have made it but I think it all works out how it should have. School continues to go well for them.
Danny and I went out to dinner with Isaacs on Friday night. It was really last minute and so much fun. We haven't gone out in so long or seen Andi and Ben in so long and had a great time,
They went to the beach on Saturday with the youth and had fun. They played in the ocean for 45 minutes or so which I was so surprised by. I thought it would be way too cold but they went with their wetsuits. It was about 100 degrees here but of course about 65 in San Francisco.
Overall, a fun week!
