Common core standards
I was reading a bit from HSLDA tonight about the common core standards. If I’m understanding the facts correctly, implementing and enforcing these rules upon our children and in our institutions will not prove to be beneficial for anyone. I hope America is not sleeping on this issue. There is no one-size-fits all, especially when it comes to education. These CCS only look to potentially threaten individual choices and freedoms, especially those of homeschoolers and private institutions. Can you feel the wool being pulled over your eyes? Best to stay alert on this issue..
The kids put on a talent show tonight. Good times. I laughed so hard until I hurt.

Prepping on Inauguration Day
We had 1/2 day of academics today, although my fifth grader and I were working on math until 10:00 tonight (followed after his soccer party). I’m up tonight catching the recorded version of the Inauguration while I read more on the Asian culture and how they raise their kids. Big differences compared to the typical American culture.
Sidenote-How much work has Joe Biden had on his face? Is it surgery or Botox? Either way, he looks 10 years younger than the last time I saw him on TV!
