On Day 1, Micah went to class, I tutored a little Latin, and then I hung out with the younger boys (since they say I can’t call them little anymore) and their buddy and my mom. We did a little grocery-shopping and got the leaky tire fixed.<\/p>\n
On Day 2, I got up early. My world flows better that way. I had a few moments of quiet, made some doughnut dough and then I met my neighbor for a morning walk. I had promised the boys doughnuts, but the truth is that I have been having a craving for a REAL, fried, doughnut since I took them to Krispy Kreme to use the coupons they got from the summer reading program. Since I am allergic to both corn and gluten, I have to fry them myself if I want to eat them. They came out yummy. (That is the only picture from our day today, and Gideon snapped it.)<\/p>\n
Micah was sick with a nasty cold and low grade fever that kept him horizontal most of the day. He accomplished about half of what he expected of the school he scheduled for today… just Latin flashcards and an algebra lesson. He laid around and listened to all of The Call of the Wild and started in on Johnny Tremain. Josiah and Gideon and I got their math, spelling, and typing done.<\/p>\n
During\u00a0our\u00a0morning meeting, we read a little from Rossetti’s poems, Trial and Triumph<\/em>, The World of Capt. John Smith<\/em>, and this evening, we started in on Treasure Island<\/em>. This morning, we went through the memory work binder, and we looked at Rembrandt’s\u00a0The Anatomy Lesson of Nicolaes Tulp<\/em>. We were all happy to stay home all day long.<\/p>\n About half a ream of paper was folded into\u00a0many differently designed\u00a0paper airplanes. I took care of some household tasks that needing doing, consulted on a paper, did a little work for BP Learning, and read. \u00a0Mid-afternoon, we watched an episode of Iron Chef. \u00a0Nobody likes for anyone to feel miserable, but a nice, slow day was appreciated around here.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" On Day 1, Micah went to class, I tutored a little Latin, and then I hung out with the younger boys (since they say I can’t call them little anymore) and their buddy and my mom.
