Older two only:

Frodo:

Bug:
French
Piano?
Art lessons
Italics handwriting

Monkey:

Duo reading (he recently told me he doesn't want to read because he enjoys being read to. But he seems to know how to read much more than he lets on.)

I'm excited to have direction again!

Wow, that sounds really great.

Where is Frodo doing Fencing at?

Just the local park an drec for now. He's been wanting to do it forever. He actually tried it when he was 7 but they turned him away because of his size.

Fencing is so cool. We have it here in S.B. but I want to wait until Z is bigger.
