The studying continues...
Yesterday, I was quizzing Peter for his Social Studies test. He had a review sheet that they had worked on in groups. I was looking it over before we started. I asked him, "Peter, who settled El Paso, Texas?" His response, "You know, Nate, Nate of Americans." I looked at his paper and it did indeed say Nate of Amerikans. (He also told me who in his group came up with that one, but that student will remain anonymous-there are moms from our school who read our blog.) Still, not catching on ( I am very slow!), I went to the book. Then it hit me. El Paso was settled by Native Americans! He is well aware of the correct answer, now.

That is so funny! I love kid stories like that - and I'd never think anything bad for you sharing a good one.
My daughter - our oldest - has had some good ones in her day.
Like the time she kept asking Leo if he wanted a "Michelle Globe" - and we couldn't figure out what she meant, until she brought him a Michelob!
Or the time we were at a gas station getting gas and she asked what kind of food "Pope Yes" made? Her dad and I couldn't figure out what the heck she was talking about until she pointed to the sign - the sign that read "Popeyes Chicken". I kid you not. That's our girl!
That's funny! Homeschooling is a wonderful vocation. I truly enjoy these moments with my own kiddos and it's always great to read other moms' as well.
Too cute :D
Actually kind of cute! I am sure he will never forget now.
Am doing well here, it is so hot. It is 10:45 PM and the sweat is rolling down my back.
Must go, but wanted to check in on you.
That is really funny!! Who is Nate? Hee, hee, hee.
So funny!
