Congratulations, Sarah! Justice is a handsome little guy. I'm glad your doctor followed his hunch.

A friend's mom, whom I also knew and liked, passed away today. She was a believer.

Beginning tomorrow, Brandon is going to be a swim class aide. How would you record this as school? He will have a swim (PE) credit...I could put the hours under that but I don't think he needs them there.

Swimming lessons don't just teach PE, but it usually goes hand in hand with water safety which is health.

Right, but this isn't taking lessons, this is helping the teacher. They do things like model strokes, catch kids, do hands-on helping.

When I am having a hard time cateragizing what they are doing, I go back to the beginning.
Why did you think that this would be a good opportunity for him?
What were you hoping that he would get from this experience?
What has he surprised you with from this experience?
Where do you think that the things he learned can lead to, and where else can they be used?
Those questions help me a lot. If I am still having trouble I get on here and ramble off some of my thoughts concerning those questions and wait for you guys to tell me where I can list that stuff in hsing. LOL!

Work/study? Not a clue. Will have a similar issue this fall when ds1 will most likely be working at the bike shop.

Jennifer--yah, I'm in the same boat with ds1. If I counted all the time he spends training and racing, he'd have all four years of high school covered in one quarter!

An elective leadership class.
I'm sorry for the loss of your friend, Jennifer.
Congratulations, Sarah.

I had thought about Leadership, but am somewhat confused as to what 'leadership' is...as a class, that is. You see, at the school up the street, 'leadership' students can vote other students out of 'leadership' class, and their grade is based on how much money they raise, and for a certain amount of money they can actually skip several class sessions with no effect on their grade. So it appears to me that 'leadership' class is simply training in dirty politics. 
Maybe at their school, but not at yours. You have a different standard and that's perfectly fine.
Zoebob, Give him some cheese and he'll be fine.

well, he's upstairs now. I'm not going to remind him he's starving if he's being quiet up there now.

I have never tried to emulate the PSs. However, my limited knowledge of what leadership is combined with what I have seen in their class leaves me lost as to a true definition.

Well, it's not like I kept foor from him when he asked for it. The gogurt was after we got home with the girls, half an hour past bed time.
He was fine all day and not hungry. It's just that now it's bedtime and he thinks he's going to die. He did get the yogurt right before I tucked him in. In fact, I think he ate it on the way upstairs because I saw the empty tube in the bathroom trashcan.
If I told him he could sit and play video games instead of going to bed he probably wouldnt say he was hungry.
ETA: Since he did just have the yogurt I know he's not going to die. I told him that if he was really that close to starving to death he wouldn't have the energy to complain about it.
He probably eats the least of my 3 kids.

Actually, it was Marty. Missy was Clark's daughter.
Another problem with that series is that it made marriage in and of itself look WAY too ideal.

My beef with them is that in these books, God supposedly told them to marry the unbeliever. Like I said, though, a couple of them had reasons to do so (to show Christ's love for us--while we were still sinners) but I still have a problem with it.
Ditto. Plus, Hosea as an example is no excuse. Even back then God didn't condone his people marrying out of the faith, as a rule. He had Hosea do it as an EXCEPTION to the rule, because He wanted an EXAMPLE to show the nation of Isreal how it had been unfaithful to him.
I, personally, believe God speaks to us in the Bible ALONE, and not directly, and I believe it has been that way since the Bible was complete, but even if He does talk directly, I just can't believe He would tell us to do ANYTHING contrary to His word. He did it with Hosea, because Hosea was a prophet, but we are not in the days of prophets now.

Has anyone else done something like this?
Yes, I have, for a year, than a year off, than two more years, I home
schooled two children for a single mom. The second two years, the boy had lukemia. In California the law is that someone else can be involved in homeschooling your kids up to half the time, so the first year I taught, I had the kids M-W-F, and she did stuff with them the other 3 days, and I taught at "my" (my parents') house(she was a cleaning lady at the time, so had a flexible schedule), the other two years, she had a full time job at a company, and I taught her kids M-F mornings at her house, and then she did stuff with them on evenings and weekends. It was a blessing, but the boy died  . However, the girl, and I, who this fall is starting a nursing program at the community college, still have a relationship. In fact, she comes for coffee on Friday afternoons.
Cynthia, I wondered if you saw this post?
