A bit cross – Sun 19th Oct 2014

Sunday’s are dominated by homework in the Bluecrisps household. T, not wishing to complete it during the week, preferring to get it down in one go.

I say “one go” but it does take a while.

Whilst I completely understand T’s reasoning behind this – he does have a long day – it means that we’re limited to being at home. There are also always issues between the amount of homework that T has, compared to D. She has “News” to write and reading.

It can make for a glowering T at the table, books around him, muttering away because of this variance.

But there have been giggly moments, times in which they’ve been competing against each other on the cross trainer. T especially trying to out-do his sister on both pace and calories. This is where his football training and running around fields all day on Saturdays is very nigh in evident. But, it was a good break between homework and they willingly (ish) took turns.

If we had to be in for homework, it was a good way of keeping energy levels up.

Half term is in sight, with one week to go. I hope everyone’s day has gone well Jx
