Hi, group! I am sending this one out a little early, since I have a ton of
things to do on Monday. Have to run a bunch of errands, then pick up 3 kids
who are spending the night with us tomorrow night. They were supposed to do
that Friday night, but we all came down with a stomach bug, so we had to put
it off. They are in public school, but this week is their spring break, so
it all worked out anyway. By the way, we are all just fine now!
Remember, if you know of a homeschooler who might enjoy getting this email,
just forward it on to them or tell them to email me and I will add them to
the list.
So, without further ado, here are the sites I have found for you this week.
