School is here

Tyler started school this week. As you may know, we home-school. It seems to be a little harder this year. I think it is going to challenge him, which is good, it keeps him on his toes. I feel that he has learned a lot in the last two years but I hope that this year is going to be the best one yet for his learning.

There is more reading involved and he is having to be a big boy and do more grown-up work (i.e., work that doesn't have pictures on it). I can't seem to keep him in clothes these days. The boy won't stop growing. I start school tomorrow which is going to be interesting. I have an algebra class that I have to have a proctor for.

For those of you who don't know what a proctor is, it is someone that watches me take test to make sure I don't cheat. Well most people that do that want to be paid and it has to come out of my pocket. Well I'm sure that I'm not the only one out there that has money problems with the price of gas and the way the economy is these days. So if the teacher is dead set on this proctor thing I'm going to have to drop the class and hope that there is another one that I can take for this semester. I emailed the teacher and told her that I was freaking out, that I don't have the money for that and I still haven't heard from her.

Well I hope that everyone else that is in school is having a good start and has a great year! I know that we will here.
