Ryder is improving greatly in his interest and health. I realize now I can't buy anything packaged - unfortunately a label may not be fully disclosing. I'm better off doing everything from scratch.

Over the next month we'll continue with GRATITUDE - incorporating this in more ways, continuing with daily prayer and blessings at every meal. Beginning of the day. Gratitude for the Divine and gratitude for life, nature, friends, family, etc.

Our meal ryhthm is getting better. I'd like to get more simplified in our "things". A place for everything and everything in it's place. Home for each thing. That is what I'd like to finish the year out with -

Ryder is doing basic reading and spelling. I don't want to push this too much at least until he turns 7 but he tends to read anyway. Dax wants to get in on it - his letters are constant as is his love and creativity in art.

Ryder - Air - Sanguine

Daxton - Fire - Choleric

I'm working to balance each area.

4 corners - Native American studies - I'd like to learn more about this with the boys.
