Spencer and Taylor started school (away from home) for the first time in their lives on Monday. Both nervous and excited, they headed out at 5:40 to early morning seminary before the sun came up. I didn't see them till after 5:00 because they are in football and have practice after school.
They were both positive about the overall first day, though Taylor does not like his Spanish teacher or World Geography teacher, and Spencer wasn't too sure about having 2 girls in his metal shop class. (They both have metal shop, which is actually agriculture mechanics I. They are going to drop it to have a study hall because they found out they won't be doing any metal work this semester.)
Emily and I have been having a great first week alone together in a quiet house. It's so different so fast, but I'm enjoying it! She is very studious and we have a great lineup of subjects this year. We are adding a theater class at a local homeschool store that offers classes two days a week to suppliment the home schoolers, and we signed her up for more "official" (non-mom) piano lessons which are right down the street and probably one of the best teachers in Katy!
