quatro

Hmmm, let's just say today has been a bit hands off on my part. Maybe my life should be on a blog, nah...

Jake is writing definitions for his vocabulary which was supposed to be done yesterday.

He straightened up his room.

He unloaded the dishwasher.

He watched a movie even though we told him again last night this was against the rules (I was taking a friend to drop off her car)

He read part of Pilgrim's Progress.

He stole chocolate from his dad.

He accidentally threw his brother's sweatpants in the garbage. (I only noticed because I was pulling out of the driveway and there they were with the stuff he had thrown out)

He cheated on his spelling test, said he didn't, acted indignent when I called him on it, including repeatedly slamming his door, shoving his paper in my face and screaming that he didn't cheat.

Jake later came and appologized for cheating and lying about it.

Jake helped clean up before I left this evening (had to do something for a friend)

It's late and the kids are in bed so I don't know what else was accomplished today.

Jake I was very proud of you for coming and fessing up to cheating and lying. Remember it is always best to tell the truth even if it is after the fact, it will help your soul. Take the time and effort to study and you won't feel like you need to cheat. Remember, Dad and I did our fair share of lying, cheating and much worse, there is always redemption on the other side when you humble yourself. Growing up isn't easy...I know I wouldn't want to do it again!

I love you bud!
