AHHH the sound of the kids playing nicely


NOT!!!

My children are "playing" together. In our house that means that they are wrestling, picking and being just plain ornery to each other. It's amazing how families show love for each other. They have been at it for over an hour now. I just sit and laugh because getting upset quit working years ago.

Cassie has been struggling in Algebra this quarter. (and that is putting it mildly) I told her she needs to get help or she won't be able to play softball this spring. She went to another math teacher and asked for help. Within 5 minutes of him explaining it to her she got it. She has the actual class for 80 minutes every other day and she can't get it. The teacher does a problem on the board with the answer and then tells them to do their assignments. I think she will be able to pass it and get on with accounting to finish out her math credits. Cross your fingers for her.

Mason is doing much better this time around. He is finally turning in the homework he completes. He used to sit at the kitchen table, do his homework for two hours and then not turn it in. It makes no sense to me at all.

The kids are now chasing each other around the house like a rabbit and a dog. Does it ever end? I am not complaining though, I will take this over them screaming at each other any day.

Well I am going to go check on the dog. Chance had a lump removed from her hind quaters today. It started out as a little wart looking thing and then grew more than the size of a quarter around and was raised up about 1/2 inch. She was up and moving around about an hour after surgery. They didn't have a cone to fit her so we have to keep an eye on her so she doesn't chew her stitches out.

Good night!
