STUPID MATH

uuuuuuuuuuuuuhg I HATE MATH IT IS SOOOOOO STUPID!!!! And I'm starting division!! Math and I just don't get along!! We've been enemies since the start!! From simple addition in 5k to division in 4 grade. It's SOOO frustrating. I just want to stop and quit, but I can't because I want to be a vet. (And because I'm not a quitter.) I am going to ride my bike and work out my frustration. And, tonight I will go to the barn and chill with my horse. Beka

Some things that have gone on since my last post on OUT OF THE BOX !!=) Well one thing is the SEA MONKEYS. My brother was sick and so he Ginny gave him Sea Monkeys. Well they had BABIES !!! There are six little baby Sea Monkeys, a mommy and a daddy. The difference between the male and the female is the female is more peachy looking and the male is more white pale looking. That is so very exciting!!!
We also have plants growing.We bought this box at WAL-MART and now have eggplant,tomato,cucumber and sweet pepper growing. The eggplant and sweet pepper have just sprouted but, the cucumber is already THREE INCHES and the tomato is already TWO POINT FIVE INCHES !!! That is all for now.

Boy Child Frustrations

I am a little frustrated with progress or lack of progress with the boy child. He misspelled two words in his journal today and had a breakdown. He literally laid his head in my lap and cried. He said "why didn't you tell me they were wrong?" I had to go get his old journals from last year and show him how many mistakes he made and how funny it is. He laughed and hopefully got over his need for instant perfection. How do you explain to an unreasonable child that he making mistakes is a part of learning? HELP!!!!
