Elroy Public Library Homeschooling Group

Yesterday was the first meeting of a new homeschooling group in our area. There were over 32 kids in attendance (age range: 2-13) and several families couldn't attend yesterday. Reeve and Kyle hooked up with some familiar faces from the story hour and met some new faces.

The librarian, who is awesome BTW, initiated the kids with an hour long library tour. She gave the kids a map, which Reeve loved, and then at the end quizzed them where certain things were in the library. Reeve, who is not accustomed to raising his hand, blurted out the correct answers (no one need worry about Reeve being shy). Miss Mary, the librarian, had to ask him several times to raise his hand.... I don't think she's accustomed to dealing with homeschoolers :-).

There were lots of 6 and 4 year olds for Reeve and Kyle to befriend. See the girl with the braids and blue sweater in the pic below? She's 6, and Reeve already told me he thought she was cute.

This group will meet every other Thursday, and we're really looking forward to it.

KYLE'S LYME UPDATE: No word yet on the results of his Lyme titer, but his rash looks better. Last night it was barely noticeable and looked more like a bruise than a rash. He was as energetic and bubbly as ever yesterday, so thankfully no other symptoms have presented.
