Home School

The boys had their second morning of home schooling this morning. Brennan (not quite 6) and Tanner (4) are learning phonics and math and science and all kinds of things. And Shannon is doing a fantastic job using the A Beka curriculum.

The boys are surprisingly enchanted with the whole thing and laugh a lot as they learn. That said, the two boys couldn't be more different. Brennan is too easily distracted. If he's not consuming new information at rapid pace, he tends to drift away. Tanner, on the other hand, is Mr. Compliance. He sits in his little chair with eager eyes, giddy at the chance to learn. Those boys are pretty special.

Of course they will have their moments where they'll drive Mom crazy, but after two days we've gotten off to a good start.
