A few things, not at all related

We are in Saratoga Springs for Chris’s residency. We took a short drive to Saratoga Springs State Park. The girls played in the creek (spring?) and watched water bubble out of the ground. We plan to head back tomorrow.

While at Bob Evans (still pronounced Bob Mevans, in case you were wondering) Gillian looked over at the table acorss from us and counted- “1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8 people at the table”. This is a new development for Gilli!

Erin is saying “what’s that?” and pointing to all kind of things. She can also say- “push” and will poke and push you (not sure where that came from). She continues to adore books and will sit and read her book with you (this is to say that if you decide to read the book to her, she will take away and point to pictures herself).

Isabella is continuing to learn new site words. She is really starting to take off with the whole reading thing (laughs….you’d think I could phrase her reading knowledge, understanding and development better, but eh, it’s been a long day). She is missing some of the daily interactions with other children and her behavior shows it. Unfortunately, we have missed several get togethers due to illness.

I have begun to put together Bella’s first homeschooling quarterly. I have “tested” her math skills and reading, as well as reviewed narratives, anecdotals and other documents. I am very pleased with our documentation and assessment, it is much more indicative of her skills/abilities and we tailor is as needed.
