Household scraps
So, Bret has to create a model of Zinc out of things that he can find in the house. I can see him eyeing my jewelery, cutlery, etc.. I have to keep him centered on stuff that we don't NEED. And then there's the hot glue gun left on late at night, the boxes of consumable craft stuff slung all over the place...it better be a fabulous atom when it's through! Emily is writing a report on St. Clare, and the girls and I made some habits for a skit they'll be doing about her (extending one loaf of bread to feed almost a hundred) people tomorrow. Rachael said everything felt scratchy (that would be the burlap, honey) and she hoped they could get it done fast. :-) Today is the perfect day. Not quite crisp in the air, but just a hint of it with blinding sun. All the windows are open and the wind is slighly billowing the curtains. Makes you want to take deep breaths.

School for us today consisted of reading (done outside), math (also done outside while I trimmed the holly bushes), history (a brief discussion of Marie Antoinette, who Lotus thought was "Marie Donut") and what decapitation is, which covered science.
Then we spent the rest of the time looking up weird animals online. One word- Hoopoe.
Yay homeschool!
i want the crisp wind here! i took the sunset last night. we didn't stay long outside because it was literally mosquito fest 2008.
