Last Thursday, I zoomed for class from the church office so I could attend an ensemble practice during my lunch break. It was sunset time when I finally went home and the sky was so absolutely gorgeous when I left.

Semester Break
This 3 day weekend constitutes a semester break for the boys for Virtual School. Wesley and Davis actually finished all of their work a week early, and have been working with an awesome college student from our church two hours a day, getting a head start on the second semester. Both of them finished up with all As for the first semester of school and we are so glad that it has worked out to be a good experience for them.
Parker needed all the way up until the deadline on Friday evening to get his classes completed: Honors Chemistry, Honors Probability and Statistics and Introduction to Law. He's still waiting on some assignments to be graded, but should have all As and Bs. He still has some Spanish 2 to complete, but has been given permission to extend that one into the spring semester (he's 2/3 of the way done). For the spring semester he has his more favorite classes: AP English Literature and AP US History. Also introduction to psychology, which we hope he will enjoy as much as he did the law class.
At one point on Friday, Parker set his laptop down to go do something else. One of the furry friends decided to try to help him with school!

A Grown Up Time Out
After the Asian grocery store last weekend, I drove over to Winter Park (about 15 minutes away) and found a comfy spot on the lawn away from other people to read and study. It was super relaxing. I've always loved Winter Park; in my childhood my summer camp would always take the Amtrak train from Lakeland to Winter Park and then we would stay overnight in one of the hotels and go shopping in all the cute boutique stores or go sightseeing at Rollins College or the sculpture garden or one of the parks. I parked in the parking garage up top and avoided the crowds on the sidewalks and stores. But it was still such a nice atmosphere to study in.
