Update on our children

They keep growing.


Zachary, who should be in 3rd grade, finished 4th grade math and will start fifth grade math next week. He loves our bimonthly chess club with homeschoolers and friends. We have also played Risk, Dominion, Hnefatafl (a viking variant of chess), and legos (when the children get tired of games). Jill started getting the newspaper, which Zachary found has comics, so the paper frequently disappears early.
Chayce keeps pushing through belts in karate, is reading a ton, and loves to take care of our chickens (pictures coming). 



Have you ever watched bad lip reading on youtube? They take movie clips, and watch them with the sound off, and insert random words that fit with the mouth movements. It's like listening to Payge. Payge is 5. She has started reading, and is great help taking care of the fuschias. 

Quinton is walking, says a few words, and likes anything with wheels. Not to ride in them, to push them. He is frustrated that he can move the wagon and wheelbarrow by himself, but he has no desire to ride in them.
