We are going off the grid for a week or so – trying to enjoy the last of summer before school starts in a short three weeks.  Hoping to return energized, refreshed, and ready to take on schooling again!  Sorry for those of you who have noticed my silence.  It is not intentional.  This is actually one of the first summers where I have hardly turned on the computer.  It is a good thing – I think and hopefully it will make school that much easier to endure.

This year will be a bit harder.  Little man is going into first grade and I have to teach him full-time while also teaching his older sister who is going into fifth grade.  She had Dyslexia and struggles with reading and also understanding language sometimes so she needs a lot more support from me and I am also hoping to tutor her…
