Today is the second week into summer vacation. Its funny because this time last year I didn't want my oldest son to go to school at all, but he was very ready. I'd enjoyed our school time at home. And this year he learned many new things, from interaction with other kids to learning how to control his feelings. We are still working on the latter. He also picked up a few behaviors we are not very fond of at all. Very toddler behaviors I watched other children in his class acting out, that he had never done prior to being in school. Then we moved, and thankfully quite a few of these fits and attitudes have disappeared.
So here we are. Aidan is preparing for 1st grade. He is reading well above his age group and his social skills have improved tremendously. He still writes pretty rough but hes a guy. I would'nt expect great writing yet.
Update 7/12: We haven't been doing as much homeschool work as in would've liked. Other things have complicated our schedule. With only about 12 days left til he starts school again, I think we're just taking our time to be a family. I know he'll be fine once school does start because he loves that environment. I'm just hoping at this point he doesn't get in trouble on the first day like I did!
