Wow! What a day! I decided to teach my son, Esteban Lee preschool at home instead of sending him to preschool. I never dreamed that teaching a 4 yr old how to draw a letter or a circle could be so hard. Why is it so hard to hold a pencil just right and to draw a circle in between two lines? He did OK on coloring in between the lines, recognizing his shapes, and his numbers. He struggles with the writing thing. Was I the same way? We have the same personality. I feel sorry for my poor teachers. Please help me pray for patience. I really need it. We both were almost in tears so I stopped a few minutes early.
Whew! What a morning trying to teach school, potty train my 2 yr old, and take care of my 9 month old baby, and clean house in between. I think that I will feed them lunch and send them to bed so I can finish cleaning the house and crash for a little bit. I hope that I will have a better afternoon. Actually, it probably wasn't as bad as it sounds. Have a wonderful Day!
