I have decided earlier this morning that today would be not just another day for us. It's going to be a day filled with exciting activities on Botany with my Euy (pronounced yoo-wee). She waters her herbs in the light hut and stare at them and probably wonder why there are still no sign of life to her plants 3 days after she planted them. She updates her nature journal and collects dried flowers and leaves to add to her collection.
She sets breakfast table for three and really does them well. Goes to her Times Tables Chart and does her Math drill orally while in her hoola-hoop. Answers a few pages of her Singapore Math and just like before, does all her worksheets with less supervision and a few negligible mistakes.
Just yesterday she was telling me that she thought she would be ready to do lessons on square roots. And while she really loved multiplication and division and solving word problems, she wanted to do harder adult stuffs already because she loves challenges. Sometimes my daughter scares me. Well, if you're ready for square roots, I'm not. I kept this thought in mind, careful not to disappoint her. We'll look into Saxon Math later in the day and see if we could switch to that next school year.
Noah, is hooked on Dora (the Explorer) these days so it's not really a challenge to tame a pre-schooler. Besides Dora, he's also into racing cars, chasing birds and butterflies, counting beans, digging dirt.
Thank God, it's not just another day but a special one at that.
