Lincoln Log Letters

We had a great day today. After we made a trip to our personal Mecca, Walmart, where, by the way, we bought eggs, changed the oil in the car and contemplated the purchase of a bacon egg and cheese, we got home and got down to business: the business of making letters out of Lincoln Logs. Who knew? DD did. We also sharpened our brain cells with classical music. Music without words, electric guitars or drums. Then we had to keep it real with a little Fleetwood Mac (which is as lame as it sounds).

We also worked on our Owl book that we made at yesterday's Nature Circle event. We had a color sheet for four different owls with details about eye color, feather color, diet and habitat. She also requested the book I'm Not Cute, which Ms. Liana read yesterday. It's about a cute little baby owl with razor like claws and machine-like hunting skills. You had to be there.

This afternoon we attended our first ballet lesson. She had a great time and she said the other little girls were nice to her. Two of the girls in her class are homeschoolers, too, so I had a chance to chat with their mom and learn all I could. Luckily, she'll be back next week. There's so much I need to know!
