Homework

 This is our new routine in the afternoons.  After a giant snack of sandwiches, chips and juice, we gather in the homework room [which we sometimes call the Studio], and everyone pulls out their daily work.  Scotty has 10 minutes, Jacob has 40, and Michael has a whole hour every day.  It is new to us, and my brain feels a bit lost in all the individual schedules...but we are figuring it out.  We really love all hanging out in here together - it feels cozy, inspiring, industrious and welcoming.  Colin always joins in too! "My-Turn" he yells, finding his own supplies to copy what any brother is working on.  Michael thrives on this routine and expectations.  Jacob is struggling a bit - he is so tired after school.  Scotty is now interested in coloring for the first time in his life.
