September 5th

Today, we had our first day at our Friday co-op. It was the only true school we have done all week. This morning I decided to let the kids recover from several days of going to bed late. Doing otherwise would've been setting myself up for failure. I woke them up around 8:45. We prayed the Liturgy of the Hours and then ate some homemade whole wheat muffins. After that we had chores. By the time the chores were completed, the morning was almost gone. I only had time to sit down and read to Nicolas. I have been reading to him from Tasha Tudor's fairy tales book. We read Rapunzel and The Emperor New Clothes. I think is funny how Nico won't let me read Sleeping Beauty and Cinderella. We also read some poetry and worked in memorizing a poem for his presentation at CC next Monday.

In the meantime, Alex was engrossed in The Hobbit and Gabi was enjoying this surprisingly cool weather we have been having. She was sitting on the front porch working on her Latin.

I can tell for how our morning went that getting a lot done of Fridays is going to be challenging. To make it on time to co-op we have to eat lunch and be ready to go by 12:30 at the latest. We see how it all goes...
