Day 4

This morning Nathan left for Madrid at 7am to go on his very first temple trip.  Luckily Bob had the day off work, so he was able to take him to the bus. After dropping off the boys at school I asked around to see if anyone had information on how to homeschool and comply with Spanish laws.  Really I would like to talk to someone who has dealt with the same problem as us.  So far we haven't found anyone.

Today I contacted Clonlara, a school based in the United States with an office in Spain, that might be able to help us.  Bob also contacted the Canadian Embassy in Madrid to see if they could give us some guidance.  They are prepared to support us in any way, which is something.

Today we continued with our regular classes, Discovery homework, math, writing, social studies, typing and then a special class with Hideyo Roberts.  Hideyo also has kids at the American school, she is Japanese American and a life coach.  For Ciara and I, it is important that we share the joy of homeschooling with other educators.  It allows Ciara to interact with other people and gives us a bit of a break from each other.  Ciara really enjoyed her time with Hideyo.  As this was their first time working together, they played some games and got to know each other.  I feel very fortunate to have great team of teachers to help me with Ciara's studies.
