Half-way into our new school year.

 

This has been a challenging year with 2 year old in tow.  Sometimes we school, sometimes we don't.....  Homeschooling overseas with all its challenges like language, friends, neighbours, car breaking down, time spend looking for a new one, thinking of moving house..... I am amazed that my kids actually learn anything.  So what have we been doing this past couple of months?
