Breaking Away

It was a wild goose chase--actually a wild hamster chase--today when Queen Whiskers broke free of her cage. The new rule is that no one is allowed to either open the cage nor put their hands in it. Queen Whiskers it to be enjoyed only from the outside.

Ever since the great escape, Barton has been shoveling away at the bottom of his aquarium. I imagine he's thinking, "If that rodent can break free, then so can I..."

Other than that, we had a pretty full day. We learned about the New England and Middle Colonies in Social Studies, and they had homework (the two aforementioned regions' worth of their SS journal pages 40-41, along with page 38. The kids also have spelling, a DOL, and my Math class has page 168 in the MJ and study link 5.2. (They most likely already have the MJ page done.)

Yes she does, Viva. She just doesn't know how to show it.
