SkyHigh Home School Mondays
We went to the SkyHigh home-school day. Mondays from 1-2pm and only $5 per hour instead of the regular price of $9. Julia, Rachel, and David had a blast and I now have something that really motivates them to get in and get all their school work done with a good attitude.

A Day in April
Yesterday while Julia and Jared were at tutoring for math, I took David and Rachel to Patriot's Park in Fair Oaks. So funny to me how one of the concerns people always bring up about homeschooled children is "socialization". Yet David went to the park yesterday and easily struck up conversations with two little boys, one younger and one older, and had fun with both boys. 
Rachel took this picture. David and his new friend played pirates, starwars and avoided stepping in the "hot lava" all around the park.
Zoe's Aunties and Uncle adore her...
Zoe with her Great Grammy Lynn.
Watching "Guardians of the Owls" yesterday at my Mom's with David and Zoe while the other kids were at piano/voice lessons. Zoe was watching the owls and I would say, "Oh, look at the pretty birds, Zoe, see the owls...." Then a few times I thought I heard her try to say "bird". I turned to my Mom and said, "Mom, Zoe's saying bird!" My Mom looked at me in total disbelief until I again said, "See the pretty birds" and she repeated it again. In this video Rachel gets back from her lesson and when we tell her about Zoe saying bird she says to her "Owls, Owls, Bird. Can you say bird?" and guess what she says? She'll be 8 months old in three days. In the beginning of this video she gives Rachel one of her big slobbery kisses like she usually does but Rachel had just put lotion on her face; so funny when Zoe gets a taste of the lotion! Be patient and wait until the end of this video to hear her say "bird".
