Schools in session

What an amazing school year so far! It makes such a difference when you finally figure out the right curriculum for your children.
When my children are happy, mama's happy. Every day just goes so much smoother!
Olivia is learning that she has her dads smarts when it comes to math. Just flying through everything so far. Creative writing is not her favorite, but it was never mine either until I got much older. Reading, well she's a genius ;) and language is just challenging enough to keep her excited for the next day.
Sonja is so excites about passing her first reading and language tests. She has a bit more difficulty reading and understanding. But with those test results it really looks like she is catching on in her own pace. She is another math lover. Getting most of the work done before I can even explain it (and all the answers are correct :)
Forrest did start kindergarten last year but stopped half way through cause it was just to much for him at age 4. Now this year he's been doing 2 lessons a day because he just flies right through everything. He's learning to slow down his coloring and stay in the lines. He gets so proud of his art projects. He thinks he need to keep everything :)
Barron is so eager this year in preschool. Last year, at age 3, there was no way he would sit for ten minutes but now he'll stay for an hour. Tracing and writing the alphabet or dot to dot and number counting. He's bound and determined to know how to spell all his siblings names by heart. He loves spelling his name on everything.
Now Liam isn't in school yet :) but boy he sure loves his "quiet" time :)

Sure has been a great start to the year! And I hope yours is going as wonderful!
