First Day of School - Compare and Contrast

The Boy- (starting 6th grade, homeschool)- Made his "to do" list (lesson plan) the night before. (this is new this year). Slept in until 9am. Had breakfast, then crawled into bed with Dad to be read to from The Return of the King (Lord of the Rings). This year the boy will start doing the blogging for his projects, starting Friday (that's the plan, anyway).


The Girl- (starting 5th grade)- Planned and organized all evening. Got up at 6 am, made her lunch, and annoyed mom to get going. Rode bikes to school. Arrived 45 minutes before school started, and worried that she was too late to meet up with her friends.
