A mix of things...

School is back in session now.  Everyone is doing well so far this year.  We started about two weeks ago and had the first crying episode today.  I have to make the twins take a break or we have problems.  Hannah didn't take a long enough break today and she ended up in tears before she finished.  Bless her heart...she gets to where she can't think at all.  She wants to be finished so bad, she just slaps whatever on the paper and gets to do it over and over until she thinks and completes the work correctly. However, the girls both had math and grammar tests today and made A's.  Yea!!

Tucker started his school year with a trip to Alaska for Survival Camp.  He had a wonderful experience.  It was a test for me also.  He flew with another young man in our homeschool group.  Thankfully, on the way back an adult friend and his daughter were on the plane with them.  He did great!!  He made new friends and survived!!  Listening to his stories makes me so happy and proud.  They had some intense training and trials.  I am so happy for him and hope that we will be able to send Alex in a few years. 

Haylee is adjusting on her medicine well.  She had a check-up for weight and height.  She has grown one inch and gained two pounds since April.  Yes, that is good news, but she was off of her medicine from early May until the middle of July.  She ate VERY well off the medicine.  We are going to try to not give her the medicine on the weekends.  I am not sure this is a good idea, but we may try.  Any suggestions for ways to keep the height and weight in check while on ADD medicine?
