Gibson has been reading up a storm!
He's read through several of the Henry and Mudge books, Frog and Toad, Poppleton, and now we are on the Billy and Blaze series.
He drug his feet on the last one, I think because it can't be read in a day.
Now that he's finished it, he wants a horse, and a dog that he'll name Rex, just like the book.
So cute!

Braden and Ethan are reading Story of the World 2 Middle Ages for history, along with the Kingfisher Illustrated History of the World.  Ethan is reading the unabridged 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea by Jules Verne and The Long March:  The Choctaws Gift to Irish Famine Relief by Mary-Louise Fitzpatrick.  Braden is reading Black Potatoes:  The Story of the Great Irish Famine, 1845-1850 by Susan Bartoletti and Bulfinches Mythology:  The Age of Fable by Robert Graves.
Ethan is a few weeks into Saxon 65.
He's just breezing through math these days~
Braden is about a week and a half from finishing up Saxon 76 and then he's moving into Prealgebra.
He is amazingly excited about it, and seems to be telling everyone that he talks to that he's 'about to start prealgebra'.
It's a big deal, right!?????
We are on lesson 7 in Latina Christiana I.  Their latin vocabulary is growing by leaps and bounds and I'm so very proud of them!
Braden started Classical Writing today.
