Get Well Soon, Jack! We miss you!

Jack is having asthma-related breathing problems and hasn't been able to come for a few days. We SURE DO MISS HIM! And yet, we are grateful that he doesn't have to deal with the mountains of busy work that would await him if he were still in public school. Life is learning and learning is life. And right now, Jack has a bigger lesson than worksheets and math homework. He needs to see that his health and well-being are paramount and concentrate his forces on that. Being weakened by stress and arbitrary assignments is not helpful in times of crisis. Neither is knowing it's all building up while you rest.

Monday has become a sort of "life skills" day around here and we've been getting the house ship-shape. Voice lessons and dental appointment punctuated the afternoon.

Supper is over, walking the dog is ahead and we look forward to a full day tomorrow. Lots of formal learning tends to take place on Tuesdays. It just works well for our schedule for Tuesday to be like most peoples' Mondays.

It's been a gorgeous day here, as we wait for more Jack news.

More tomorrow!
