The new school year is upon us, and I want to share what's new for each member of our clan.

Dave |
I have been offered a job at a firm I used to work at before the whole homeschooling thing. It is entry level , and in order to bring Amy home(see Amy), I am going to need more than entry level money. So I plan to wow them and get on the inside track as quickly as possible. I also am pursuing freelance blogging and opening a content based blogging business as alternate income streams.

Amy and Bunny Girl |
Amy started back at her school this week. This is the start of her 3rd year at her current school, and the 6th since she returned to her job as a school psychologist. Our hope is to get her back at home next year home schooling the kids as she did before I took over.
Bunny Girl starts school next week with the online Monarch program. She volunteered at the library this summer and quite enjoyed it. She is still a reading machine.

Spider Droid |
Spider Droid is jumping in the deep end of middle school this year. Since Amy and I will both be working this year, we have enrolled our 2 youngest children in public school for what we think will be one year. It was a tough decision, and we are all still making our peace with it. SD has been going to Camp Sixth Grade this week to get ready for the school year. He did a lot of swimming and biking this summer along with a lot of reading and Minecraft. He is not quite sure what to expect with the big change, but we know he is up for the challenge.

Wolfina |
Wolfina isn't exactly having a cow about going to public school this year, but it is definitely outside the old comfort zone. Inside the old comfort zone are howling, swimming, reading, howling, biking, writing letters, howling, drawing, cooking, and howling. She was in her first theatrical production this summer and loved dancing, singing, and howling.
