The Forgotten Blog

I keep forgetting to blog! I really do not mean to forget. So what does a typical day for me look like?

I wake up and try to eat, but Butterfly always tries to take my food unless she is downstairs with her daddy. I do what I can online in the morning while also derailing all of Butterflies attempts to kill herself. What is it about toddlers that they will always find the most dangerous object in a situation? Seriously, you can put a toddler in a swimming pool full of foam cubes (Butterfly likes to play in one of these foam pits at gymnastics) drop a single vicodin in there and guarantee that said toddler will find it.

Anyway after lunch is naptime and I could probably blog then, but half the time I need a nap too and the other half I try to do things to work on my business or work towards getting Witchlet enrolled in virtual academy. Almost done with that last task ... and that will of course mean no more naps for me. I will need to be devoting 5-6 hours a day to teaching Witchlet. Goobie-kins will still go to school. I am only planning on this for the remainder of this school year. She is just on different levels for every subject and it is not working out well for her to be taught at the same level for each subject. It seems she will do better with this in Junior High and High School where she changes classes for each subject and we can sign her up for classes based on strengths and weaknesses. We are actually going to start her doing 5th grade math and 5th grade spelling words and try everything else at the 6th grade level. She must achieve an 80% on the test to go to the next subject so the system automatically ensures that she is learning something before moving on. It will be interesting that is for sure. I will try and keep everyone updated on how it goes.
