March: Week 3

First, Let me apologize for not posting any lessons for the second week of March. My 3 kids are all very sick. My 2.5 year old has been running a high fever for a week and my twin daughters have been running fevers and had a double ear infection, plus cutting teeth. Needless to say, it has been a rough few weeks in my house. So, please forgive me for not getting last weeks lesson up.

Below are the lessons for this coming week, the 3rd week in March.
