School!!! Yes the exclamation points do mean joy.
Well first let me tell you about it and then you'll understand. I am doing a school called a commonwealth school. It's once a week and it has three different classes you can take. I am taking two and Zaya is taking one. The two I am taking are Key of Liberty and T.J.Y.C. (Thomas Jefferson youth certification) the one Zaya is taking is a Shakespeare class. One thing you have to understand is where I live there is a really cool college called George Wythe College (GWC) it centers a lot on principles and stuff. I have had a lot of family members' move down here to just to go to this college. So this college is really a big part of most of the homeschoolers plans for school. Anyway this college is about a certain way of thinking and they have incorporated this technique into this school. So that means there are a bunch of kids in this school who have the same thoughts on education, the same values, the same sense of humor that I do, plus they are tons of fun. As you can probably guess we have tons and tons of homework but most of it is reading classics and writing about them. We have awesome teachers who have great ideas and just have so much personality. We will have simulations and book discussions It's just awesome!!!!! I am also really excited because at the end of the school year we will be going to CA. It's going to be great as I am good friends with almost all of them and am on speaking term with the rest of them. Then in two years we will be going to Washington DC!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!! Can you feel the excitement? Plus I get to baby-sit for 4 adorable kids who I have not had the chance to baby-sit yet, and I am reading this really great book ( which I probably shouldn't be reading cause I have so much homework) so I am so much in love with life today!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hugs and kisses, Anya
