We never stop learning, even as adults we are always learning.  Sometimes we have to refresh our skills to help our kids with school work.  Then you have to hear, Mom that is not how the teacher said to do it.  That is my favorite,  especially since we are still fighting common core stupidity.
We are learning a new sport,  Sprat has been trying to help his brother with passing skills.  We had a great Saturday watching Big T play Lacrosse.   After watching a game, Sprat has decided he might want to try it next year.  We watched several games on Saturday and some of the older kids got a little rough.  That was when Sprat said he was interested.   Big T's team won both their games and he had a blast.   We are looking forward to the season. Below are some of the pictures I took, I am learning how to use Big T's camera.   Big T is #42 in black.

Just Another Day

The boys are both deep in football practice now.  They are still working on their school work.  I have tried to keep them doing something educational this summer so that their brains don't go to mush.  I hope we have done enough, according to them, they have done more than enough.  I have tried to keep it fun and educational.  We also did some educational things while we were on vacation. 
I think it is important to always be doing something to keep our brain working.  There is always something new to learn, even at my age.  That is why I have gone back to school.   I am loving my computer courses and the criminal justice courses I have been taking.  I will be going back to school before the boys do so that is going to be tricky. 
I hope that my going back to school teaches the boys that you never stop learning.  I hope they will always yearn to know more and will strive to better themselves no matter what their age.
