Date Day!

Enjoying Date day and our Great Nieces Birthday Party!  So much fun!!!!  It is the end of 2013 and 2014 is on the way in an hour.  What are your resolutions?  I'm always afraid to share because I know I will most likely fall on my face.  I hope you have a wonderful New Year!  Here is to 2014!  May it be good to us all.

Assignment / Homework Punch Card Creation

Working on home schooling stuff over the Christmas break.  Hopefully this will help keep them motivated.  They can punch out with a hole punch on each of the circles when they finish a subject.  I will add some incentive, such as when they complete 10 cards they get a surprise or activity?  I haven't decided yet.  I plan on using it for homework with Doug who is going to high school away from home.  I am going to print this out on card stock and cut them apart.  I also might get a jar and have them put in the cards when they are completed and each Friday draw a card for an incentive.  The possibilities are endless.

It has really been a whirlwind since his surgery.  The weight has come off so fast.  He is like a different person on the outside.  I am so proud of him for being brave and doing the work to be healthy.  He has done an amazing job.  The pictures speak for themselves.
