This Is The Army Mr. Jones

I got the call today that Elizabeths books have shipped and Bobby, Charity, and Daniels will ship end of next week. I worked with Elizabeth a little bit on the computer today, she has a couple lessons that are mainly online so we went through a days work with those lessons. She really surprised me, she had a game where she was supposed to type the letters from A-M and she got them all in order in less than 5 minutes, but when they were not in order she got them all in less than 4 minutes. It was a great moment for me. I ran her scheduler and surprisingly she's not going to be behind so I'm happy.
As I worked with Elizabeth Faith decided to join in so she played hokey pokey with Littlebit, then she counted(higher than her sister could), then she showed me how she could GO, which gave Elizabeth the answer to my question. At least four or five times I would ask Elizabeth a question, like how many stars are in the box, and before she could answer Faith would say the answer. It was cute but also annoying. I already learned that Faith could count higher than Elizabeth and Ezekiel, and she knows more colors and shapes. But it kinda discourages Littlebit because she is so much younger. Little bit is almost six and Faith is almost three.
I was supposed to can peaches today but I procrastinated. I have been canning this and that for two weeks and wanted a day off so tomorrow I will have peaches calling my name. I did pickles, salsa, chili, diced tomatoes, green beans, and corn. But I still want to do peaches and beets, I think that will be all I do this year. We'll see. I have jars everywhere right now though. LOL.
