Well this is an update photo from last week's ART lessons...The boys are loving the lessons and equally as fun showing them to dad when he gets home from work.

This year as I have posted about already I decided to get some
creative writing help both online and through my wonderful new writing teacher for the boys, Jennifer. She is using
Excellence in Writing courses , which the boys seem to be enjoying very much. I think that it is a win win for us..someone else who is very positive and has taught several different age groups. My good friend, Sandi L., was the one who turned me on to her:), from my numerous talks with her about our troubles with writing. I think so often when we are homeschooling I totally think of having to do it all. But that just isn't the case...after going on our 5th year of doing this and failing at trying to teach the boys something that isn't my strong point either, it was time to get help. That's something that I hope all homeschooling parents, grandparents,etc. take from my blog is if you can't teach it in a way that helps your kiddos then find someone who can! In fact, I also have in the works for the 2nd semester for Alex is an online
high school research writing course. We are in the mode where we are preparing for the SAT tests that I want him to take sometime next year.
So are you "out sourcing" anything this year?
