SHOES, A TRIM AND LESSONS

We went to Yokohama Bay Marina yesterday after church to check out the shops there. We found a great pair of basketball shoes for Ruther at the Nike store. It's white and blue and actually looks good on Ruther's feet. I also told him that they didn't look too much like basketball shoes which is a plus because he plays badminton too. Anyway, Ruther wanted to get a pair of shoes for me as well. I didn't want the added expense but he insisted. I actually wanted this cute dark green sandal-type of shoes (also from Nike) but they didn't have one my size. It was such a disappointment because it was on sale and it was so cute. So I had to settle on another pair which Ruther liked so I guess that was okay with me. The boys had fun eating ice cream and playing in the paddle boats. By 5pm we were on our way home. Will post a photo of the shoes here later. :)

I gave the boys another trim this morning. Their hair was just too long and unmanageable. Besides, my mom was complaining through email that they needed a haircut. Gotta love technology. Anyway, I also told my mom that a few days ago I gave Ruther's hair a trim and
then last Saturday, I dyed his hair (to cover the white strands). My dad found out and remarked that I might as well put up a beauty salon here in Yokohama. Hahahaha!

Silly Daddy.

I'm a little bit worried about our homeschooling. It's not that we're not doing it, it's just a bit hard to schedule these days with all the chores I have to do. We still do informal lessons but I would love it if we had a specific time for reading, worksheets and experiments. Anyway, I'm sure we'll manage somehow. It's just a bit difficult with the limited learning materials. Most of them are back home in Manila. Anyway, I'll just have to research for activities for the boys then. Hopefully that wouldn't take up much of my time...
