School was okay today, we went to the park and did some school there. It was a ton of fun. It is 3:04 and I am finished with school.

Did you know that there are over a 1,000 clay tablets in one  library in the fertle cresent. Isn’t that cool? It really helps us to learn about the past.

I was learning more about commas and their uses in binder work. There is this really funny book that dad told me about a couple years ago, it is about the importance of using commas the right way. The main thing in it is this: The panda eats, shoots, and leaves. That is the first one, here is the second one: The panda eats shoots and leaves. Aren’t commas amazing!!!

Harriet Tubman

Today we went on a field trip and mom surprised us by picking up dad and we had a picnic, it was awesome and we also went to the library and the store. It was really fun, I really enjoyed lunch with dad, it was the best surprise ever because dad left early for a men’s Bible study and we didn’t see him at all this morning.

Science was crazy as always sense we started this section on evolution. We were learning about this school district that wouldn’t let a teacher teach both sides of evolution or even extra about it because they were worried that if they knew too much about it they would see how ridiculous it is. They even fired the teacher. What is the world coming to???

Today we went on a field trip to the orthodontist and the library. We had to go to the orthodontist because I had a wire that popped out and Reed had two! The library was short but fun, and I got 8 books. I had extra school today because I didn’t finish all of yesterdays.

In math they taught me how to multiply and what multiplying is, it was a bit boring. I had 1 1/2 of a lesson today. But it went pretty fast.

I am going to tell you about our week and a day long vacation in this journal. I got up at about 6:00 am and got dressed, ate breakfast, and did last minute packing/packing the stuff that I just realized that I had forgotten. We left the house around 7:00 and hit the road. It didn’t seem too long, even though we drove 12 hours that day. We listened to 2 audio books and played a ton of car games. We listened to 6 audio books total on this trip. I read some and got motion sick. That night we stayed with some friends, they had a fire pit, a zip line and more than one play house in their backyard. they also had a new puppy and a home theater, I went zip lining for the first time, and zip lining in the dark too!!!!!!!!!! We also had s-mores and played games. I got to sleep with my friend whom I hadn’t seen in about 2 years, it was a ton of fun!!! We went to lamplighter publishing and had a tour led by the president we even watched some books get made, I folded 100 boxes, and the president even signed 2 books for us and personally picked a book for each of us kids. Dad was thinking about maybe working at lamplighter so we went to their company picnics and made friends, they are awesome people who are serving God through their work and we love what they do but God doesn’t want us there right now. We also went and saw Niagara Falls, the Statue of Liberty, the site of the Twin towers, and our cousins we hadn’t seen in 3 years. At Niagara Falls we got ice cream, and  we were going to go to the crown at the Statue of Liberty, but it was broken so we saw it from the New Jersey side. We got to camp out on the floor in the basement with our cousins, and we got there way before dinner so we got to spend a bit more time with them than we might have. And we got to meet the newest edition to the family of 11, she is not quite 1 year yet. On the 4th or 5th day of driving it got a bit boring, I am glad we are back home now.

As some of you know, I’ve had braces for four weeks as of today. Yay!!!!!!!!!!!! Only 100 left to go, and then a retainer during day and night exept when eating for about a year and then a nightime retainer for the rest of my life. Wow, that sounds a little bit intimidating.

I wrote an outline about going to the beach, I an A. B. C. and D. two a’s and b’s, and it was three layers deep. It took a while but was pretty fun. I had groups on all the capital letters.

Today my mom babysat some friends again. The morning was very productive considering.We went on a field trip to the library, and I was almost done already checked out and stuff and Adi was just starting to look at books. I’m glad that I found everything easily, and I got some extra reading time in too.

I was “taught how to subtract again.” It’s not bad, at least it’s not to hard, plus it makes school go much quicker. Math was done in a flash because of that, so the morning went pretty smoothly altogether.

I looked up a letter the main character wrote in the book I’m reading and I had to check if it had all the parts of a good letter. The person forgot to sign the letter. The part of a good letter are heading, greeting, body, signature.

Today is the first day of week two, wow time is passing so quickly. I am having a eaisier time in handwriting. And math is still the same, at least I’m doing simple addition now. All the numbers have zeros in them, it is so easy.

I had to circle all the synonams in wordly wise, it was actully sort of fun. It was easy and didn’t take a long time. I’m glad I didn’t have to do critical thinking today, it is really really hard. And I  don’t like it a lot. I wish that it didn’t exist, but sadly it still does.
