It seems crazy that I haven't posted anything since our second week. We are cruising along. He's perfecting his handwriting. Can add and subtract in his head. Is absolutely amazing at sounding out words and spelling them. He has all but 3 of his sight word cards memorized.I've decided to use the Five in a Row (literature based) resources on this website, www.homeschoolshare.com. It does a lot of the work for me. Then I just add to supplement Nathan's specific needs and interests. This week we are studying teeth. It was Nathan's idea, because he has his first adult tooth coming in. Here are a few pictures since week 2.

Santa

Surprise.

Nathan asked for night vision goggles.

Zachary asked for a truck.

Gallery Show

Nathan's wonderful Art school has a gallery show at the end of each semester. Here are the pictures from last night.

As I get older...

I value family get-togethers more and more.

This post is super late, but C'est La Vie. In November, I got to go experience the big city with my sisters and cousin. We had a great time. Here are a few pictures.
