Oh no! Subtraction!


This was a fun worksheet that Daddy made for Madison to help with her subtraction problems. What's great is that I can easily adjust the numbers to make things more challenging.  Madison got this worksheet today after school, and wanted to get right to it.  She had a challenge with one of them, but is getting better.

Today was a great day at school, and a good day afterwards too.  Of course, there's ballet each Thursday.  We got there on time, and Madison enjoyed her preparations for the recital that's upcoming. May is looking like a busy month!

On the way back home, we hit on a now yearly tradition that takes place sometime shortly before St. Patrick's Day:  the Shamrock Shake.


Madison and Daddy stopped at McDonald's on the way home from ballet - Madison had about half of her cup, saving the rest for tomorrow.  Daddy drank all of his down, which was probably not a bright idea, considering he's developing some sort of weird reaction to milk-based products lately.  But I digress!  The tradition is firmly in place, and it was yummy!

We did a little homework, but no piano tonight.  Thursdays are a tight squeeze, so we settled down after doing a bit of homework, popping in the Lego Marvel game once more.  We met the Punisher in probably the funniest part of the game - he was very angry at the trucks spewing pollution out as they drove by.  So he wanted them punished.  He let us borrow his environmentally friendly armored truck so that we could punish them, running them off the road and destroying them.  

This, in essence, is how our government works on each side, with every issue.  Tonight, we went to bed a little later, but still made time for Bible and a comic.

Fun day!  Except, perhaps, the aftereffects of that shake... but it was fun while it lasted, right?
