A Better Week

I took sometime this weekend to relax and reflect on our tough time with school last week. It made me realize we have been staying up a little later than is normal for us, and with the holidays we have been eating more sugar than we usually do.  So I'm determined to get us in our beds with lights off (no book sneaking) earlier.  I am not baking this week even though I picked my cake that I want to make this month. It is going to be a pound cake to celebrate butter, but it will have to wait. I am going to make sure that we do some fun activities. I have an art lesson planned on Matisse for tomorrow. In history we are studying World War I and the Spanish Flu Epidemic.  I want to go to the Veterans' Museum that is in our town on Friday for a field trip. In science we are studying wind. I have a science project planned for Thursday to demonstrate the formation and effect of low pressure. The last thing that I am going to make sure we do, is go for a walk everyday even if it is pouring rain. So far we are having a much better week, thank goodness.
