Fun with Dick and Jane

I didn't have homework until I was in 3rd grade, so I was really annoyed when I found out I had to help Damon with at least 30 minutes of homework everyday after KINDERGARTEN (Expectations: destroyers of peace). But when he's sounding out 'sheet' and he says "Shshiiiit. Shit?" I feel better about things.

Right now, I'm definitely feeling better about life.

Charlotte you are so funny. Expectations are totally destroyers of peace. So that's my problem...nice to finally understand. My expectations are way too high.

Hi Charlotte! I just found your blog - so fun. How's life?

Ok - 'sheet' gave me a great chuckle! Hey, you know if you homeschool, there's no homework . . . or I guess you could say it's all homework :-)

Oh, finding your blog just reminded me about that book I was writing. I should get that finished . . .

Take care,

Misty

P.S. I've got a couple blogs going and need to get a family one soon: www.HomeschoolBytes.com www.DocMisty.com and www.TurtleBalm.com for my ointments

So funny, Charlotte! I read the "Sheet" one to Justin and he said, (after laughing) "now who would get the tabasco out for that? Nothing wrong with a good cuss word when they apply". Let me give you the background to his comment: Last night after I left for school (we had the kids in the tub) Justin got Natalie out of the tub and sat her on the throne to go pee and when she said she was finnished he got her off and she went into her closet to get PJs on. Then she ran back into the bathroom where Justin was still getting Kadin finnished up and said, "I Pee Pee Daddy". Justin walked into their bedroom and saw the mess. There in her closet she peed. "Damn-*t", He said. Then Kadin hollers from the tub, "Daaadd, You get Tabasco on your tounge!" Nice! It's a good thing Dad likes Tabasco. Maybe that's where the affinity came from????? Hilarious.

Damon pretty much summed up how I feel about homework in grade school.
