So ok, how do I document the year when Ben will first graduate? Take a daily picture, or as often as possible, and get a quote or thought about what he learned for the day. Can be about anything under the sun. Here is today's picture.
The story behind it: ideally, he isn't supposed to be using the computer (unless it's for school work) anymore when it's a weekday and there is school the following day. But since this first week, there aren't any lessons yet, I thought I'd cut him some slack and allow him his last hurrah. Will I be able to hold out for the year and keep away from the computer during schooldays? I hope so. This kid needs discipline and have to learn responsibility.
As for his something learned? Upon question, his answer: 'Study harder and listen to the teacher more so I will get good grades this year.' Motherhood statement, not valid I said, but then I figured, fine I'll note down what he says he learn and then let him go back to it later.
He's a good kid, on the whole. I just want him to have more self-discipline and be more responsible. Ok, that's one goal for the year.
