Ferrara's in Florida

We started school in July and add about a subject per week. This week, we added PE when Sable and Ruby joined a middle school soccer team. It’s 5 on 5 so they get loads of practice and playing time. The coach happens to be the wife of an Olympic track coach, and she fits the part. The girls enjoy the 2-hour practice and the boys? Well, they recreate on the playground and swing sets adjacent to the soccer field. Lots of aftercare children abound so they’re making new friends at the same time. 

 

 

 

  Joel and Sable were arguing so I sent them upstairs.  A few minutes later, James announced, “Ruby, if you need anything, ask Dad instead of Mom. And don’t act up. Or else you’ll get sent away like the “others”.”

The sisters are at youth group camp all week so it’s just the boys at home. Lots of paper airplanes, lizard hunting, and pickup basketball games. James hasn’t grasped running while dribbling so there’s a lot of traveling going on. Tonight we are learning to draw boats from YouTube. (Middle photo)

So many amazing distractions when taking out the recycling 

Our summer weekends seem to quickly fill up with boating out of town. Today we enjoyed life at home after two days on the water.
