why i never read the side of the cocoa box before i'm not sure - but i have discovered the recipe for real hot chocolate & it is really good.
i have a feeling .... well i already know - that school this month is going to be hard. hard for me - i think a month long holiday sounds nice. wouldn't you rather sip that delicious hot chocolate & shop online or go to the snow for the day or play legos all morning instead .... than learn math facts, spelling words & geography? i do. since the computer has moved so has their play & my floor looks like this ....
so school - it didn't start today 'till way later than it should have. partly because regan & sailor slept in. they were up late last night. and somehow our motivation to get our 5 things done before school starts was slow going. we home school, baby, its one of the perks - we weren't docked for being tardy and we were all dressed.
breakfast looked like this -
she dug the tootie fruiti flavored candy cane : )

ben, my 4 year old preschooler, seems to be the only interested kid in school today.
'if me 'n dad were in the french revolution i would be like this ....' and then he puts on a mean face like he's a citizen fighting for the declaration of the rights of men. right now he's burning through nearly every sheet of paper in the clearanced out buzz lightyear notebook listening to how margret thatcher & ronald reagen ended the cold war.
not your typical preschool subjects, i know : )
i'm not the greatest teacher - its not really even my end goal in life to be, so i'm really liking this year of school - tutors, cds, math teachers on dvd.
'afternoon school' as they call it is over for the day. sailor's handwriting was beautiful. jack's math was spot on. and now they are outside - play is good for them, i'm all for play.
i even have the washer & dryer running. the dishwasher just stopped. and i do have a couple tabs open and the visa out : )
it's looking like a winter-ish night. i like those. rega-rooski is still sleeping. rex is almost home.
today goes down as a conquer - they were in school, no flaking today, score one for their mom : )
time to turn up the christmas music.
