We did our Latin today and as an introduction to pronounciation, the kids were to pick Latin names. My son immediately chose Caius without reading them--but I made them persevere and my daughter picked Aurelia--it is actually the name of a female relative. We're doing ecclesiastical pronounciation so, phonetically, their names are:
Caius: K eye us
Aurelia: Ow ray li ah (short i)
I'm happy: now I have a names for them for the blog!
Tomorrow we get into the nitty gritty. Nouns!

Hooray--the Latin came through!
Long story, but let me say that the Woman in Charge came through, not once, not twice but three times for me today to make sure that a book I'd paid for on Sunday was available for complete and thorough download today.
I'm more excited than I was at Christmas...I always get giddy with new curriculum. This is our new Latin text. And I'm so excited. Silly me.
But I've been threatening/promising the kids we'd get back into it--and tomorrow we shall. I've got it all ready to go.
