The disciple I would most want to be like is John because he got to prepare the world for Jesus. Today I had a lot of school to do. We got another garden plot and I am planning on selling homegrown vegetables to help me go to a two week christian ballet summer intensive. The total including taxes is about 2,000 so I better get money making. There is a sequel to my favorite book, The Candymakers. I can’t wait to read it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! We are thinking about unschooling me next year. It wouldn’t be fully unschooling, I would still do math, science, history, and so on.

Today we read on our own again. I read about sumuari, it was sort of cool. I also read more about the crusaids, the Muslims and the jews were awful horrible about them. Science was about what the world is made of, did you know that vinegar is a compound of gases. It is really carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen, and that is the same exact things as acetone. I learned about lasers in science too.

I can’t believe I’ll be twelve in four days!!! You know new years resolutions? Well last year I made a birthday resolution to understand life by the time I’m twelve, I am nowhere close and Mom said she’d be lucky if she did that by the time she was 40, and Reed said you find out enough to know that there is a lot more to it than you thought. I don’t know everything but I do know the purpose of life, mans purpose, our Creator, and a lot more. As I ponder life, for each question answered ten million more bubble up from under the surface of my thoughts, they will bubble up forevermore. But I think that whatever the answer to those questions are, life is a bountiful gift from God, and we should use it to serve Him forevermore.

We went to pickup stuff at the store and the library, it was fun. It is only 4:14 and I should be done by 5 o’clock, yay! Today we read our stuff by ourselves. I read about Samurai in history. They were like knights in a lot of ways. I read ahead in Bible and read about crossing the Jordan and the memorial stones. We read crazy not understandable poems.
They had their codes of chivalry, their lords their land and other such things. They knew how to paint, dance,garden, and write poetry. It must of taken forever to put on armor. There were knights who set up hospitals and they had a white cross with red around for their coat of arms. We learned about the holy crusades.
We started chemistry in science today. Chemistry is the study of substances. They mix them ,heat them, cool them, discover them, and other such things.

Lava got fleas and we are going to give him a flea bath today. We read poems about birds, and while we were reading them the window was open so we could hear the real birds chirping in agreement. Mom’s throat hurts so we didn’t finish our stuff. It is only lunch time.
We learned more about Jesus’s power, it is not magic and He only uses it to help people. It is amazing that Jesus’s disciples had less faith in Him than the other people did. Demons are real, but God has power over them. My favorite miracle that Jesus performed was when he healed Bartimaeus.

We are back at our house with mom and dad now!!! YAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! We got the day off of school yesterday because mom was sick with the stomach bug or something like that, and it was also presidents day. She is better now but not all the way better, and Reed is sick too so I have been the only one doing school today. It is only 1:48. Adi is moving out of my room so I am doing a ton of cleaning.
I got an A on my math quiz. I learned about pluralization in LA, it was pretty easy and went quickly. I drew a map of where Jesus did miracles for field guide, it took a while but I think I did an okay job if I do say so myself. I am ahead in workbooks so I didn’t have to do any today. I did some of yesterdays stuff so that when we do extra together stuff I won’t have as much stuff to do.

Trump has lost a battle in the war against banning travel. Some people have said that the countries that e want to ban are mostly Muslim, and that would make it incrimination. He plans on taking it back to court with a new argument. We will soon see how it turns out.
