We took a while deciding what to order, and in the end, went with a Plow and Hearth eucalyptus set, because we have had a great experience with our other Plow and Hearth purchases. Cora and I treated it with protecting oil, and hopefully we'll have this for years to come.
We ordered red cushions, but received navy blue by mistake. After talking with an employee, they told us to keep the blue cushions until the red are back in stock. I actually really like the navy, but I do want the whole yard to go together, so I'd rather have red.
Cora is done with seventh grade. Her final few months were stress-free and easy - she sat on the couch each morning and did schoolwork for less than an hour, and managed to earn five A+'s and another high A. Three of her grades were over 100% because of extra credit. She's a smart girl, but her distance learning work was definitely too easy.
She earned a spot in her school's chapter of the National Junior Honor Society, and on Friday night, the school released a link to a YouTube video induction ceremony.
With school over, Cora is spending lots of time on screens. It's hard to know what else to have her do - at 13, she's not really playing much anymore. She's been playing Fortnite with her cousin Euan in the UK. One day last week, while playing, Spencer ran in and dropped a mockingbird at her feet.
Cora wasn't super impressed with her gift.
