This blog that I started about 3 years ago was a way in which I was gonna keep up with Amanda's homeschool adventure. Some how life always gets in the way and I blog about that instead. So tonight, I thought I would actually blog about Amanda and close a chapter in her life.
For the past 2 1/2 years, Amanda has attended a little cooking class called "Show off Chefs". It's been taught by a teacher from the school district here. Her name is Marie Thomas Osborne. She grew up here in Podunk, TX. and is making an impact on her students. Both in public school and through her cooking class. Tonight was her last night to hold class. Due to different circumstances, she had to make the decision to close up shop.
I would like to Thank Marie for the past 2 1/2 years for the time, effort and creative recipes she taught Amanda and the others.
This is also our last week of school before taking 2 weeks off for the holidays. I know we are looking forward to the rest. We have quite a few homeschool families that attend our church and one particular family started school earlier this year in order to take the whole month of December off!!
The science class that we had for 14 weeks is over. History is still a booger! and will have to be the only subject we do over the holidays in order to not get behind. It's A LOT of reading but I have enjoyed reading about our history. Although, I am tired of the Pilgrims. I'm ready to move onto the colonist, American Revolution, Civil War, etc.
Piano lessons will resume the week of Jan. 5, 2009. 2009! can you believe that??? January 7, 2009 will be Amanda's 11th birthday! Man, I'm getting old. No, actually, Mike's getting old!!! I'm just saying...
Anyway, looking forward to Friday and hopefully some warmer weather!!!
