Busy Days

We have been busy here at Haggerty's Academy. Seems like the more I try to push forward the farther behind we get. Not to worry though, I will keep pushing forward.

Is it normal for boys to forget everything over the weekend? We will have something down perfect on Friday, come back to review then add to it, on Monday but it is like Hayden has never seen the material before! How frustrating. But I have just come to the conclusion that no matter how long it takes we will just go over it again, and again, and again.....

We have been learning other things outside of the classroom, in this month of March. We had a field trip to see "Swan Lake" the ballet, in Mobile, which was wonderful. This was my first time seeing it & I must say it is one of the best I have seen in a while.

Then we took off to the Port of Pascagoula one afternoon to meet up with one of the
Republican candidates Mitt Romney. We were early so we were right up in front, it was thrilling. Hayden shook Gov. Romney's hand & Nina had him sigh her shirt. We have pictures, it was great.

Hayden is one of only a few 8 year old boys, that I know, who know all the presidential candidates. It is really fun. He also loves going to the polls to vote with us. Hopefully when he gets older he will continue to love the process and maybe run for office himself!
