Sundries

1. This is the kids' spring break, so Josh and I decided to suspend Fiona's homeschool stuff and let her have a break. She was so stoked about it; Monday she watched TV and took it slow and had a great time. Yesterday afternoon, she said, "Mom, I'm bored. Can we go back to having school again?" LOL So today we read more Howliday Inn. We read chapter four; draw Chester and Harold in the thunderstorm; write: what does Chester think about Heather and Howard?

2. We saw a mature turtle crossing the road! Josh helped it across, and we looked it up to find out it's a box turtle. Yay!

3. Josh is venturing out to the store tomorrow. The last time he went was March 31st, so I think we did pretty well. Next week, we'll need to stock up on meat again; luckily, the local butcher is still open.

That's so funny about Fiona. And yes, you ARE a cool mom. How is your older one doing?

Not surprised Fiona wanted structure again! A break is great but only because it's a break. We've been doing two-days-on, one-day-off for that reason.

my mom & i once helped a snapping turtle across the road with the use of a hoe & wide square shovel. (the shovel was like the left example under scoop shovels in link below)
