Baseball
We had some homeschool fun this morning playing with glowsticks. I dissected one so we could watch the liquids mix together, and then we played with hot and cold water to speed up and slow down the chemical reactions. We also did our usual round of book learning, but I expect the science playtime is what the kids will remember.
After that, I worked for a few hours until after lunch, then took Thomas to a dentist appointment. Fortunately, no cavities, so he’s doing a better job of brushing. Then it was back home and back to the computer (and the telephone, which immediately started ringing).
Dana took the kids out to a baseball game tonight, and I stayed home in unusual peace and quiet. Had a light dinner and relaxed a bit, as well as spent time writing more code. Kids got to stay out a bit late, then had a quick story and tuck in when they got home.
