This afternoon I was helping Ryan work on an assignment, where he was to write a newspaper article as a journalist who lived in the 1960s, writing about our country's political situations at that time. After I read through his draft, I explained that he had stated the points but not explained them, so that someone like me who lived then may not understand it fully. He looked at me, and with realisation, said, "oh! poor laywoman! I know what I must do now." My my, to be called "laywoman" by my eleven year old! The only consolation, is that the draft article improved a lot after that. :)
Got a new layout to show! I am so pleased with it, it is our day spent at the Washington Monument and I enlarged and blended a photo with the backgroun paper and loved the effect.
