I was laying in bed listening to the seagulls making a racket outside. Sounded like someone was feeding them but then I noticed it was still dark outside. Springing forward has made the days longer in the evening but it seems like it takes forever for the sun to come up in the morning.
I got up and went to turn on the coffee and noticed the time. It was 4:30 am and I was wide awake. I just stay up when this happens to me. No since in trying to go back to sleep once I am out of bed.
The aroma of the coffee made me crave that first cup. It was not too long and Sherri was wondering through the door. I poured her a cup and we both sat down. We discussed our up coming trips and what route we would take and where we would stay.
After about an hour I heard Kris in his room. It was time for school to start so my attention was drawn toward that. We take about 2 hours for English and Math. Then we have our reading class and spelling. Once that is all done it is time for our history and science class. All toll we spend about 4 1/2 hours and then we turn him loose to to do his own thing.
Sherri and I spent some time riding our bikes and then we took Kris down to the beach to swim for a while. We are busy most every day and loving it. We would not want to be anywhere else...

I read your blog with interest - being a great-grandmother of 2, I wonder if I'd have the energy to raise a young'un again. But if I had Kris, I know I'd do it in a heartbeat! Great Admirations!
Sounds like you guys are adapting well to your new lifestyle, enjoy!
