LATE NIGHTS!!!!

I want my children to have the best education and I want good teachers to teach them. But, sometimes I feel that teachers just give out "busy work" to give the students something to do. Brynna had a huge project last night that just didn't seem to have anything to do with what she was learning in this class. She was frustrated because it was getting very late and she was tired but she still had so much to do. The assignment was worth 400 points of her grade. I tried my best to encourage, support, comfort, and energize her to finish the assignment. Kae Lee was working on homework that seemed to be appropriate for what she was learning in Health. Michael was helping her and they seemed to be having a great time doing it together. I am so thankful that Michael is so willing to help our children with their homework. Homework was finally finished at 12:30 and everyone was in bed by 1:00am. My mother always tells us to enjoy these times with our children because they will be gone before we know it. We are all very tired this morning, but I think that we learned something from each other last night....With family, you can accomplish just about anything...even homework.
