Justin and His Homework

Justin gets more homework on Friday but I’m glad that I don’t have to push him too much on his work. He will do his work, but maybe not in one shot. He will split his work between writing and playing for a while, but to me, as long as he completes his work, I’m ok with it. Frankly, I’m so glad that I don’t have to hold his hand and do his work together with him. LOL! He will ask me to show him one or two by holding his hand, then he will do it on his own.

I think he has some of hubby’s characteristics when he’s a boy. Hubby was one of those nerds that would do his work well and make sure that everything was in perfect order. Justin likes to do his work well too, and if he doesn’t trace the lines nicely, he will erase it or ask me to do so over and over again until he is satisfied with his writing. But there are days when he is just too lazy to be bothered by how “ugly” his work is, so I better don’t erase anything unless I want to handle a difficult boy.

The best thing is, when he’s doing his homework, he will ask me to do mine too. He assumes that blogging is my work. LOL! Sometimes, we will chat with each other while he’s doing his work. I know, he’s not concentrating huh? But well, repeating the same letters and numbers more than 30 times can be pretty boring to a little kid, ok? I consider his homework time as our way of spending quality mommy and son moment. If you are wondering where is little Isabelle, she takes her nap at this hour.

BTW, he wanted me to snap photos of him tracing the number 5 and blog about it. So, here you are, my boy.
