Relaxing

The girls and I were not on with home schooling this morning. Roya couldn't think of what to write when asked to use her spelling words in a paragraph about a new invention, Yasmin took forever with her math sums (even though she knows them), and I didn't seem to have as much patience. I think we were all glad when the exercises were complete.

We made it to the beach a little later in the day. It was relaxing to have a swim and then read our books. Both girls are turning into quite the little readers. Yasmin is in love with Harry Potter. This afternoon she finished the third book in the series and has moved on to the fourth! The fourth book is quite thick, so maybe it will last her a while.

We found a restaurant overlooking the beach and had our supper there. The sun was going down and the longtail boats were coming in. It was very peaceful, and the morning's frustration was long forgotten.
