School Projects....ugggg

So here we go again with all the girls' assignments being a huge production. Codi's book report for the month of September is due Tuesday...so I figured we would get it all taken care of on Saturday....what ever happened to reading the book and filling out a paper that showed you understood and could summarize the plot??? No...she has to create a picture that represents what each chapter is about...so I ask Codi how many chapters her book is....25!!!!!! We get her all set up in the office and tell her she needs to just get it done...every time I checked on her...she was doing everything BUT her project!
! Wasn't like it was hard...just time consuming...I was so frustrated with her by Saturday afternoon, I told her it was up to her to get it done~~~I wouldn't push her anymore.....I woke up Sunday morning at 6:30...Codi had been up since 6:00 working on her pictures...guess she just needed me to lay off!!!
