One week down!!!

We have made it through the first week of school!!! Andy and Lucas did really well. Andy had 3 tests on Friday and he received his greades yesterday and he did really well considering I was not at home on Thursday night to help him studying because I was off spending the evening with Kenny Chesney (that will wait for another post). He made a B on spelling and vocabulary and an A on his Bible, that was a pretty good considering we all had to get back into the swing of things. I will have to admit that Michelle is right, trying to study with an older child while entertaining a younger sibling is quite a challenge, I did not understand what a big help it was last year when Woody was home to entertain Lucas while I helped Andy with his homework, I have been trying to find "homework" for Lucas to do at his desk while I work with Andy, it was worked pretty good so far.
Lucas had a good week also, even though he is only in 4K they are starting to work heavily in the mornings on basic info. and his teacher sent me a little note home saying that he was doing really well and that he was just too sweet(I already knew that).

I would have to say that they started off really well and they (we) just need to keep it up!!!!

First week of school is always a challenge - I had a "school" bag for Austin when he was younger to keep him entertained while I worked with Gray and Megan. All it was a dinosaur pillow case full of fun stuff. The trick was he could only get it out during school time.
