Looks like a busy year!
I had to laugh seeing the Character Sketches. I thought I was the only one with those monstrous books!
Writing it all out like that does help me feel organized, but also maybe a bit more overwhelmed. :) Ah, well, we'll see how we do . . .
Kevin had this Character Sketches book when he was a kid and he really enjoyed it, so we thought we'd try to use it with the boys. You are right, they are monstorous books, but they're so cool at the same time! I just love looking through them. Have you used them in the past?
I was going to use it last year but decided to wait until Alexia is older. There is so much in them that I didn't think we could utilize it the best just yet. I should probably look through it again. I remember going through them in Wednesday night church in first or second grade!
