Weekly updates are a great idea. I've really enjoyed reading what everyone has been up to. My three 11 year olds are keeping us busy. They have had a lot of big projects in 6th grade this year. They just finished "creating their own country" project...whew!
Too bad it couldn't have been a combined effort, but they had to each make their own country....explain the government, laws, customs, make a map, Industry, Imports, Exports,,,,,it was quite involved and of course I was right there giving them guidance and trying not to help too much. DS plays basketball games on Saturdays, practice on Fridays. DS and one DD have dance class on Monday and Thursday, the other DD has dance class on Sun., Mon., and Wednesday. They will all be in the dance recital on March 7. They all go to Religious Ed on Tuesday nights so we don't have one free day. Only three more weeks of bball and we can have Friday and Saturdays back to do nothing if we choose. I love being their Mom. Time is going by so fast though. They are all so tall now...4'11-1/2", 5' and 5', 1"...only three more inches and DD will pass me by.
Anyway, I'll check in next week.
