Last minute

I'm as bad as the kids!

I tell them to pace themselves, not to leave everything to the last minute, but tonight I found myself up against a few deadlines and writing furiously to get everything completed as promised.

Tomorrow we will scramble to get all the assignments together since we save that for Monday. We assign a full week of work at the beginning of the week. We set up a few guidelines as to how that has to come together, but for the most part, the older kids regulate their work flow pretty well. When they don't, we get to say things like, "I give rides to kids who are caught up." That usually takes care of any additional procrastination.

Sometime in this next week we have to fit in time to build a fence for the goats. There has to be a math lesson in there somewhere. :)
