early 2013 - terrible time for DD5 in Pre-K. mercifully, i eventually found you lot - who have saved my sanity every single day while we tried to figure out the depth of our issues and some solutions for them.

late 2013 - fantastic start to homeschooling. effectively a triple-grade skip and additional math acceleration. all going well.

looking into 2014 - relieved to have finally made peace with the fact that certain friends & family don't really want to understand what we're doing or why. they'll reap the rewards of it (happy kid, back to her old self!) and that will be enough for me. wheee


Every Sunday it brooded and lay on the floor. Inconveniently close to the drawing-room door.
