Oh the questions!

Yesterday was C's first day of K5. We did K4 last year-more for me to get in the routine of school than for him. But I think it did him good. He is very smart and gets bored easily. Mental stimulation is very good for him. Right now he is bored with school simply because it is all review. But it is moving faster than K4 did. It will get better. And longer. His first day only took 70 minutes.

But the questions that he has been coming up with lately! Oh my! He is a thinker. Thus the reason school is very good for him. Here are just a few of the questions that I can remember (remember he is just 5):

What does the word revelation mean (the new Third Day CD is called Revelation; that's how he heard the word)
Is God taller than Titan (one of the American Gladiators on the NBC show-he loves that show)
What is our blood for (this was out of the blue on the way to Wal-Mart)
What are goosebumps (he saw them on my arms in church the other night)
Why do astronauts wear suits (he checked out a space book from the library) This then led to a discussion of gravity and why astronauts sleep hanging on a wall

I like the fact that he wants to learn, but sometimes his time and place aren't so good. And why do they have to be so hard?

Here are a few pictures of his first day. The one picture that I didn't get was later in the day when I caught him sitting on his desk. Needless to say, he got a stern talking to and had to watch that subject over. Next time the punishment will be harsher.
