Easing Back In

We haven't done much school this past 2 weeks. First, we all got sick with one of the nasty flus that's going around, then my uncle died and I left to go to his funeral. The boys stayed home with their Daddy, who was still trying to get better. So we're trying to put our routine back together again- but Dragon has an ear infection and cough. Still, we got a little done, around a doctor appointment and long naps.

We read several books this afternoon, and I asked Monkey to choose one for a narration. He decided to do "Disgusting Body Facts: Itches and Scratches."

I learned that some people are allergic to foods. It might give them sickness, such as red, swollen lips. Brown spots on your foot, called warts, make it itchy to walk on your foot. Hair bugs bite you and suck your blood. Lice make poo, and it makes your hair itch. The hair bugs can lay eggs. Chicken pox make your back itch. You can get them from somebody else.
