It is a big month at our house.  Brice and Zyla-Bell both have a birthday and this is all we talk about.  We also start soccer practices and games for all 3 children.  And this is year we have allowed Cadence and Brice to play fall baseball and softball.  In addition to this, we are continuing our involvemnt with one of our local Homechool Co-ops.  So we are are almost NEVER home.

As soon as the kids get out of school we rush home to have dinner and do homework.  We will leave the house sometime around 5:30  and return about 8:30.  Then it's baths, snack, and bedtime.  Believe it or not the kids are usually asleep by 10 if not earlier.  We get up at 6:30 and start all over pretty much 7 days a week.

School has been going good for kids.  Cadence is age group does most of their school work on the computer so she is struggling some with sitting in front of a computer a good portion of the day.  Brice is whizzing through his school day and rarely has much homework.  Zyla-Bell seems to be outsmarting everybody and is possibly getting kicked out of Kindergarten.

We probably should have put Zyla-Bell in 1st grade but we didn't.  Her birthdate is 9-19 and she only missed the cut off day by 19 days.  We had worked with her on  several things but we had not push her to get too far ahead.  She did not have constant sit down work like Brice and Cadence has had over the past 5 years.  So we decided to stick with Kindergarten in case there is a few things she could learn or improve on. Well I guess GOD could have other plans.  Her teacher informed us on Friday that they would test her to see if she could go to the 1st grade.
