• Today was pretty much a normal day around here. We did our morning reading, and then stopped to watch a bit of weather school on Facebook. While that was on, I did let the kids work on their school work while I folded the clothes.
• When that was finished, we started work on school. I was talking to Reagan at one point in my bedroom, and the next thing I knew she was gone. Upon further investigation, I noticed that the window was open. Gracious, at least she is climbing through windows during the daytime.
• A few minutes later, I was telling Whitman that he could skip his math when seconds later, he too was missing from the room. Reagan had walked by and grabbed her brother from the room. By this time, it was starting to sprinkle so they didn't stay outside too long. Not many people probably have their kids climbing in and out of the windows during the day.
• The kids finished up their school work right before lunch. So we started on making our lunch-PF Changs lettuce wraps. Whitman chopped mushrooms while Campbell and Graham peeled the carrots. Reagan worked on chopping the carrots and was in charge of stirring.
• It took a good while, but we eventually had our lunch made. Don't be surprised but I did have some that did not eat our yummy meal-Robby, Keaton, Whitman and Anderson. While we finished cooking, Robby ran to support the local BBQ economy.
• The rest of the afternoon was spent working Legos with Anderson and played basketball with most everyone. Whitman is getting the hang of basketball a tiny bit-at least he wants to go out there and play with us.
• We had BBQ for supper tonight. When we finished, we did start a new rule around here-two kids have to clean the kitchen. Keaton and Campbell actually volunteered tonight.While they worked, I worked on the new puzzle. This is a 1000 piece puzzle which I would like to sneak in the kitchen and work on right now but will pass on that.
• We did play the game of Sequence tonight. Whitman had not played before but some how he and I won the game. We then watched a Bates show before finding a snack!
