May 16th- 22nd

Sunday- Ava read a few chapters from her "Scooby Doo" book. We went for a walk and the kids played outside with the neighbor.

Monday- In the morning the girls played eduational games online, and did math and spelling with Michael. Then we went to the library. Amara read 3 board books while Ava read a book. Then we went to the gardening store and picked up some strawberry plants. While out to eat at Pizza Hut, we played a few games (I spy, name animals/things starting with each letter of the alphabet). We also discussed why humans don't lay eggs and what mammals were. I finished reading the book "Sarny" to the kids. Then we compared it to "Night John" and talked about what they liked about the books and what they didn't like. The girls watched "The Magic School Bus: Sports".

Tuesday- The girls took turns playing on the computer. The kids played outside in the sprinkler.

Wednesday to Friday: Due to a family emergency, I had to go out of town. Michael stayed home with the kids. He did math and reading with them, gymnastics on Thursday, the kids played in the pool in the backyard, but mostly they had daddy time.

Saturday- I returned from Florida in the afternoon. We came home and watched a documentary by Animal Planet caled "A panda is born" and then it's sequel "Panda's first year". I was so tired from flying all day, it was a nice way to spend time with my family while resting.
