I’m back!! or am I??? Hopefully….

I’ve just registered for this years academic studies, so I am back at the University – which basically means that I would have daily access to the internet again, don’t know about the availability of time to blog yet.  At least I have a moment to do it NOW.

For the past three weeks I had a constant companion in Laura.  We started homeschooling, doing real work, reading, riding our bicycles and visiting where and whenever we wanted.  I am SO impressed with my girl, I hoped to lay the foundation for working by herself during these three weeks, and I think I was successfull.  Or rather – she was successfull!!  I never even supected her to be so enthusiastic about learning.  I always thought she was bright and clever and responcible and everything else a mother thinks her children are, but she surpassed my expectations so far, I have no words to really describe it!!  Somebody recently said to me a parent can only homeschool his/her child if she likes the child.  Love alone is not enough.  I must confess I am totally crazy about my kids, at the moment I am totally mesmerized by Laura.

Talking of “mesmerized” – we’ve been reading “Artemis Fowl” (I can’t remember the name of the author right now – something like Aion somebody – oh whatever).  In any case we actually looked up the origin of the word “mesmerize” – it actually refer to a medical treatment called mesmer – some form of hipnotism or something – named after it’s inventor – a medical doctor with the surname Mesmer.  We thought it was very cool, so we “mesmer” very often in our home

Okay, enough of this blabbering, I need to go visit some friends in blogworld and will post more sensibly in a few days.

Oh and I just now remembered – we are looking for blogs by kids.  children that blog?? We want laura to start a blog but thing it would be best if she could first see how it is done and also try and find a group or community that she could eventually become part of.  If you know of anny child or teenager that blog, please give me link.

Thanks
