***Heirs of the Magi News Flash!*** The annual fall festival is now behind us, and Cassie and Michael are heading out on their fall trip - this time to the South Pacific! They'll miss out on the Halloween fun at home and the rest of the high school football season, but all of that time in tropical paradises will likely be worth those little sacrifices! Some favorite grandparents will be away for adventures in Arizona or elsewhere too, but our favorite Magi staying at home are sure to have a lot of fun anyway. We'll have all of the adventure highlights from home and away right here for you each day; so... ...Visit Witch Falls often to keep up with all of our latest stories; and Happy Reading! P.S. Thank-you to everyone enjoying our stories from Witch Falls as we have passed five-hundred thousand views!

Ehlana's and Ethan's Journals - May 29, 2024

 

Ehlana and Ethan:

We’ve had another busy day and that has mostly revolved around academics and studying for our exams; so we don’t really have much news to offer with this report.  Reviewing and prepping for those exams kept us busy at school; and then we’ve studied with our friends since then through until nine-thirty when we stopped in-part because some of the parents stopped by after co-ed ball practices to collect their kids along the way home.  Ethan and I hosted the session with help from Mom and Dad for the dinner part of our study fun, but they also went to the park to help out with next-gen kids while we were busy studying anyway.  In addition to having more than half of our classmates working with us tonight, Naomi and Aaron had six of their friends to work with from their Grade Eight class; so they ended up taking over the sunroom for a lot of their studying while our Grade Seven study buddies worked in the dining room.  You won’t be surprised to find out that our friends wanted to study the most-challenging subjects for them, but we only worked on math and science today.  We’ll need to help them out with history, geography, and the other subjects that require more memorization, but we can’t also given any of them better memories; so there are limits to how much we can help them.

No, that did not give me any new research ideas for creating a way to make everyone brilliant or enhance anything else – though it really would be awesome if that was possible!

Moving along, we don’t really have much else to report.  Mom did a Magi lesson with us after our friends left; we only did a bit of family business charity work; and now we’re quickly winding down toward nap time.  While we haven’t really had a newsworthy day, we have loved the time with our friends – especially the friends that we don’t get to hang out with as-often outside of school or church.  We should definitely try to do better with that, but most of those friends are also farm kids and they have responsibilities at home that won’t change anytime soon; and we’ll all have more work to do as we hit our teen years.

Instead of getting into that or anything else, Ethan and I are going to call it a night; that’s all we have; and we’ll be off to dreamland soon.

Until next time, live with love, fellow Magi of the Light!
