Tues. June 2nd

This morning I asked Connor what was on his agenda for today, and, after attending church, Chinese was at the top of his "to do" list. We have Chinese lessons at 3:30 on Tuesdays, and he likes to go into class prepared. So he spent at least two hours today studying Chinese. He also finished correcting his math workbooks. I give him the answer key, and he does all his own "edits." Basically, it means he finds out that he made a mistake, OMG, and then he tries to figure out where he went wrong. Connor is also writing a gospel song on his guitar. The song has evolved this week from a serious Catholic church type song, to a rockin' with the gospels song! Too funny!! But each time Connor writes out the lyrics (and the notes), and then he reworks the song. Yet, it's still not a song that I'd say is "good." But the experience is important, and the patience attached to songwriting is something we are working on developing. We practiced our Tae Kwon Do form for a bit, and Connor spent awhile watching the guys build the new deck/sunroom.
