We recently had a new addition to our family; as did friends of SurrogateAuntie, and some of DH's co-workers. I was due before ALL of them, and guess who delivered last?? And late.
SurrogateAuntie delivers late as well so I joked with her that we breed true Tarheels (in the historical sense, not in relation to the collegiate teams)--they have their heels dug in before they even come into the world!! *lol*
Eldest was the latest of all our kids, and he still digs his heels in. Especially when it comes to lessonwork. I'm running out of ideas of how to encourage him to tend to his lessons and the more he digs in, the farther behind he gets. One of the glorious things about homeschooling is the ability to work at various levels amongst the core subjects, but this is getting a bit ridiculous.
The fabulous planning I did so we could polish off our "year" is null and void. We're just doing summer bridge workbooks right now, and even that is a battle. *roll eyes*
