wednesday's learning

 Cullen goes with us to the co-op where we study our science and history. Jeb and Cullen were making wind and studying the map.

this is the pitiful face....

First Day of C3

 Ava starts her 4th grade class, Ethan 2nd and Cullen starts a new class this year. I am so excited.
He loves to sing the memory songs so I know he will love his class. He is a big boy now. He will have to get up in front of class and give a presentation.  He is in class with Aaron his best buddy. Ava and Ethan are happy to be back with their friends. It's going to be a good year!

good morning surprise

This morning I woke up to this. Cullen sleeping between Nathan and I. Just what I needed to see. My sweet Cullen Lee.

last day...

Today I made the decision to take Cullen out of preschool. It was a hard decision and I lost a lot of sleep because of it. I realize just because I homeschool does not mean we can do everything and still get our school work done. So I said "Cullen this is your last day at preschool." and Ethan said, "So sad." and then Cullen said, "SO HAPPY!"

He has really never liked preschool so I guess I worried for nothing.

flipping out

Tonight while Cullen and I waited for Ava to finish dance, we went to the playground. Cullen wanted to swing. So I was pushing him and he wanted to go higher so I pushed a little more. Then all of the sudden, he let go and did a flip in the air and landed face first in the sand. It scared both of us to death! He got up and once he realized he was ok, he said, "Flipping in the air is AWESOME, but landing is not so Awesome!"

my little dare devil.

never leave a man behind

Tonight at baseball practice one of the players called Nathan, Nate and not Coach Nathan so Nathan told him to run the field. He started to run and Ethan asked Nathan if he could run with the boy. Nathan said yes. Ethan had already ran 4 laps and was resting when this happened. Ethan caught up to his team mate and he said, "I never leave a man behind." None of the other boys wanted to run an extra lap but Ethan did so his team mate did not have to run by himself.
When Ethan told me this I was speechless. What can you say. His heart is gold.
