My youngest has begun taking classes at the local "homeschool center." She is now taking three classes, two are taught by one of my best friends. The other is one where she is teacher's aid with younger kids. She is very happy to be there. In her Lit class they are reading Cry the Beloved Country. She is finding it hard to get into. I think she will like it after she has read more. She is also taking creative writing, each student is writing a book. Her older sister took this class and writing the book was a lot of fun for her.

Today the weather is sunny and it's not very cold out. The daffodils are in bloom and so is the japonica. I'm thinking about making baked chicken and some kind of salad for dinner.

My middle girl is home again after being away all weekend. She was working at a convention for fns of Japanese animation and culture. She is very interested in majoring in linguistics and we are looking into the program at UW.  I am hoping she will contact their undergrad advisor today and set up an appointment for us to visit and learn more about the program.
