Wednesday!

Went to church as normal this morning.  The kids worked really hard on their school.  I am enjoying the progress they are making with the English that we have been working on.  We have been working hard on creating outlines from different paragraphs.  Then after some days away from the original paragraph the kids write a new paragraph using their outline.  Now we are adding more things to the paragraphs...using at least one "ly" word and a which/who clause and then we have what are called banned words.  At this point in all writing they can not use the word see/saw, go/went, and say/said.  I am loving how it is changing their writing so much.

After school today Bob Nandell meet us at the church.  Daniel has been very excited about taking pictures for a while now.  Bob brought him a nice Nikon camera.  This camera is amazing and will be a great teaching tool for Daniel as he explores photography.  This camera is a film camera and has an nice lens on it.  I have a feeling that we will be spending a small fortune in film and development to his rolls.  He got the camera early this afternoon and we have already went through and entire roll of film. 

Daniel is so excited that Bob has offered to teach him about the camera and about taking pictures.  John and I are happy to see that Daniel so excited about something and pray that he works hard and studies photography.

Church went well and now we are home relaxing before bed.

  1. Photography is a great hobby. My Dad does that and has been a blessing because he takes family pictures for us, took our wedding pictures, etc.
