excuses

The boys are off to school. ITBS is wrapping up this week for my 3rd grader. My preschooler tried to convince us he needed to stay home from school today. First he tried flattery..."I would get so much smarter if I went to school at home with you Mom, you can just read me home school books." When that failed he tried a medical approach..."Uh oh I have the hiccups, you can't go to school with hiccups!" Then somewhere during the morning rush he had a change of heart and suddenly announced, "I am ready to go to school today!" Hmmm...don't know what is up with all of this as he loves to go to school without hesitation, and normally gets upset on the 2 days a week he doesn't have school. Maybe his little brother has been filling him in on how super cool Mom is and how much fun we have everyday at home? So we don't home school but my youngest tells everyone he goes to Mom school and his brothers tell everyone that he goes to school at home. So there in lies the confusion.

My 8 year old is turning 9 soon, and we are having a few friends over for a sleepover Friday. I suppose I need to get some work done. Laundry, the supper dishes from last night that I somehow neglected to get done...the boys did a great job of cleaning their bedroom last night, so that is done. I also need to decide if I am going to bake or buy a cake. Thursday's are allergy shot days, so I will be picking the boys up from school and driving 40 min's to the dr.
