What we are up to this week....Week 1


Lydia starts weekly violin lessons (she does weekly during the summer since the teacher has more time then).  Our weekly Science club/play group starts this week too!!!  So excited about tomorrow.  We have an art date set for Wednesday to make art with our homeschool group for an art auction.  We have assessments this Thursday.  Caty has her first diagnosis appointment this Friday.  Going to be a long week....and guess what, summer is supposed to be easier.  Yeah Right!!
