Homeschooling One Extra

Homeschooling has been an interesting challenge this week and last. We have my cousins son visiting and since we school year round, he is homeschooling with us also. It's a big difference for him from public school, but he's really enjoying it. It's been nice since they are very close to the same adademic level that I can just use what we are already using for both of them and they are both challenged. The main difference is that Boo has been using ABeka and has been doing cursive from the beginning, my cousins son is just learning cursive. Another other major difference is that the Bible is the main part of our learning here and they don't teach Bible in public school.  

All in all though with both boys it's going ok.  Boo is still slower than molasses when doing his work and still gets caught up in every distraction that he can find, even a little rivalry hasn't helped that.  But I hope it's been a good experience for both boys.
