I think it’s pretty obvious that we’re in *summer mode* around here. There’s still a lot of phonics and early reading happening, and lots of incidental learning. But my desire to buckle down and report on what’s happening… well, that’s ebbing low at the moment. Around the middle of September, when we return from vacation and get to it, that’s when the blog will be regularly updated again. And now for the random thoughts you are so anxiously awaiting…
Gamma is sitting at the kitchen table behind me, putting together a Lego project intended for a kid twice his age. And singing “Highway to Hell” at the same time. I’m not sure if I should brag or not.
Epsilon is wearing a diaper, yellow wellies, and his brother’s swimming goggles. That’s it.
I have a to-do list a mile long. It’s getting longer while I sit here and play with my blog.
The five year old is now playing under my desk, and has just told me that my feet are like caveman feet. I think I need to vacuum. And maybe mop.
Gamma, Epsilon, and me, on the shores of a small loch in Scotland last year. We’re going back in ten days. None of us can wait. We go up at least once, often twice a year. It’s our second home. It’s all I can think about.
Sigh… can’t procrastinate any longer. Time to whittle that to-do list down from a mile long to just a kilometer. After all, we are in Europe.
