I left Mike in charge of homeschooling this afternoon, due to mushy brain syndrome.  In fact I also did that yesterday afternoon, due to weekly shopping and fever on Antonia’s side.  Mike’s less adaptable than I am about the activities he will undertake.  So far, Antonia and he have mainly shared an interest in board games.  Looks like they have a few new possibilities: playing in the snow, learning to write Japanese characters, building things out of the recycling trash, and BAKING.  I’m rooting for the baking!
