Today we sat on the couch with our knees to our chin and had Mom School. All of our family's possessions are in the living room and library room. But today the carpet layers came and we now have beautiful carpet and fresh paint in the bedrooms. It looks really good. Too good. Who wants to move now? : )

So for Mom School we did:
Pray/Pledge
Song: 3 primary songs
Bible: "Ruth" from The Old Testament Reader.
Friend Article
Idaho History:Read about Mountain Men in Idaho from A Rendezvous with Idaho History.
World History: We read several more pages about Hoplites, Sparta and Greek warfare from Usborne's Greek History book.
Myths: Read about "Daedalus" out of the book Greek Myths by Geraldine McCaughrean.
Literature: Read two chapters in The Last Battle by C.S. Lewis.
Science: We read about sharks and fish life from The Natural World Illustrated Science Encyclopedia by Usborne. Caleb loves this book.
Chores: House chores and animal care

The kids read quite a lot on their on. Olivia and Jared had piano lessons. We spent most of the late afternoon and evening putting our house back together.

For Family Home Evening we had a modified night with only testimonies and a lesson given by Alex.

How sweet it is to have most of the house put back together.
