So I read a chapter, then do a lesson, then read a chapter, you get it :D lol. So I'm not as productive as you are, because for me a chapter is leisure, but it makes me do my math faster :).Elizabethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02622529052150223699noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3004974476643738026.post-33456589096333290862010-03-30T15:05:54.287-07:002010-03-30T15:05:54.287-07:00I'm exactly the same as you!

And I try to be patient and recognize that childhood is short and should be enjoyable--it really is over so quick. But a good work ethic is instilled at a young age, and I think a good work ethic is what makes a person successful in life. So yeah, I try to balance things, but it's not easy. <br /><br />Trying to clear the decks to start on SK 14.

I don't know why I've never thought of it. <br /><br />I'll be sure to try it sometime. It sounds like it's a very productive way of doing things, and makes the best use of time. <br /><br />Don't your sons get assigned chores around the house? Just asking, as every kid in my family has to do chores of some kind to help out. <br /><br />Anyway, so what are you working on right now, in terms of books? The Running Dream, I guess, and Sammy 14...? :-DJinnydhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06276758520098532432noreply@blogger.com
