Wednesday Night Wrap-up

After this morning's disappointment, we have recuped and moved on. :)

This afternoon took us back to the YMCA (another branch) where the kids have been having their swimming lessons. Little Miss Kitty Cat apparently put her face in the water, as well as jumping (with hands being held by the instructor). Yay! The Transformer I didn't get any reports about.

Why don't I know what's going on with them? Well, I decided to exercise while they were in their class, at my husband's suggestion. I'm sorry to not watch them but also wonder if it's good for them to not have me there. All the other kids' parents remain by the poolside. I did get back a few minutes after my daughter's class had been dismissed. I came in to her beginning to cry because "I didn't have anyone to help me shower." :( Her teacher said that she had helped her. I felt bad, of course, that I wasn't available when my baby needed me.

As for "school," we finished up Bible study and the 3 Rs this morning before heading out to the nonexistent class. While out, we also read a book for Cub Scouts and began a child's biography of Laura Ingalls Wilder, which we will continue over the week. Back at home, I then had them watch a video on bicycle safety that stressed the importance of using a helmet at all times when on wheels.

I had gotten that video at the library earlier today along with another on Phonics and one called "Rock and Mineral" for one of the Contenders badges. We'll then go to the Science & Nature Center and look at their collections to enhance the Contenders badge and finish up the requirements for the Cub Scouts Geology AND Collecting belt loops. Isn't homeschooling great?

Well, I think that's it for today. I'll try to be better about getting pictures up with my posts again.
