Ben was still feeling exhausted and a little under the weather after Saturday night’s cub scout campout and was totally not up for school work. I let him have a sick day.

Bella is working on copying all the poems she’s ever written into one notebook.
After lunch we went to a matinee to see Solo. Because one great advantage to homeschooling is being able to go see movies midweek. After the movie we went out to our favorite pho restaurant, a very pleasant day. Of course there was much discussion about the movie
