The day started with lush promise

My kids have been begging me to do lessons out of this book.

So we began. We learned about dots--anything roundish in shape that is colored in.

Then we went on a dot hunt

Here are some dots

And another dot

Eek! A spider--a sorta dot

Peas!

Checked on our tomato plants

Found another spider

Went to the park

Made clay geckos

Went swimming

Stopped and talked with folks in town

Mourned the loss of a tree that was removed from a favourite lawn

Came home to draw pictures

Made forts

Listened to Justin Morgan had a horse

Raced to emergency trying to beat a thunderstorm

Read Katy No pocket and Keep the Lights Burning, Abbie

raced home to beat the next thunderstorm

We all had a freezie

We all called it a night
