March Break!!

March 12th, 2008

Well, it’s March Break at the schools here, so it’s March Break at the house.   Only problem with that is that everything is packed with families.  We are taking the time to just relax and it’s been nice  outside the past couple of days (finally) so the kids got out which is nice.

Next week is better for homeschoolers because the attractions are not crowded and there wont be many school groups out and about.  Monday we are going to the Royal Ontario Museum with a large group of homeschoolers which my kids will love (and we are going with their best friends).

 I was going to take them to a Maple Syrup festival today, but again I didn’t think I would enjoy the crowds.  I may take them the first week in April when things are settled down somewhat.  Also - it will be warmer.  Yay!  I’m so tired of the snow and cold that I went out and bought both kids really bright spring raincoats.  Bug wanted to wear her’s home, but we are not quite there yet.  So, back on went the snow coat much to her dismay.

I started a book club with a bunch of other mums and we had our first meeting last night.  It was so fun!  I hostess (and will continue to do so - I’m a bit of a homebody, plus I love to cook/bake) and we chatted about the book The End of the Alphabet by CS Richardson.  A bit of a boring book, but the conversation was certainly not!

Enjoying the journey,  Amanda
