During the whole of Aidyn's first grade year, I was largely at home with only a side part-time job. This year, however, I am finishing up my BA degree (and taking 5 classes!) and working part-time.

Oh my goodness you are busy! This looks like a great plan and I'm wishing you well with all the extra work & studying you will be doing. It sounds like Aidyn has a wonderful year ahead.
ReplyDeleteI will be soon! I start school myself on the 26th so I have a couple weeks to prepare. I tried to find interesting enough but predictable curriculum this year. I don't have time for the fly-by-the-seat-of-my-pants method from last year! Looking forward to reading about your girls' year. :)
