Brennan has had some exciting stuff happen to him lately. He was called to be the Deacon's quorum president and was set apart Sunday, 2/12/06! He received the news with the usual emotional outburst he's known for - sitting quietly, smiling slightly at the bishop and saying "OK" when asked if he would serve. He is taking it very seriously and doing a great job.
Brennan's other big news is HOME SCHOOL. We ripped him out of the public middle school he attended and he's home with me, Carter and Rosalind during the day. The school district has a wonderful home school program and their office is just down the street from us. They are a tremendous source of support, textbooks, unlimited free copies, cheerleading and ideas. We meet with a consultant almost every week to track Brennan's progress and we keep a notebook of everything he does and all the hours he completes. So far we're lovin' it. The home school office is in the same building as a community center with an indoor swimming pool and a rock wall, which he'll be using when he starts PE there (probably in March). He's all excited!
