A Heart-Stopper

John spent Saturday (after soccer--Luci got to kick the ball TWICE: that is good for her!) working on Luci's tree house.

The posts were put up last week. Today John put in the floor, with Bryan's help.

and Bryan pretending to toss Dreamy-Sister down the hill. STOP!!


Later, Luci and I were looking out the back window and what did we see? What is that going on down there? Is it what I think it is?



Yipes! This is the heart-stopper: John putting on a corrugated roof.

From another perspective. John was really up there, with nothing to break a fall except the ground. It's going to be some tree house! JT helped with this part of the building.

Later that evening, Luci found the slate I bought for her at Williamsburg. She began copying words from the pamphlet that came with it. I got the slate for fun, for school, for play-acting like Felicity. Yes, she needs to work on her "R." She's not in Kindergarten yet, so I think she did just fine. And yes, she copied correctly--RABBET was spelled with an "e" in the 1700's. I love the chalk on her face. She really had no idea that she did that.

Some School Stuff

Our favorite way to store crayons. (Don't worry, Nana--it's a plastic jar.)
I found several learning games at Wal-Mart this week. They were cheap, so I got several. They are all simple, colorful, and perfect for preschoolers and Kindergartners. Here's one:


Luci having fun "doin' my skoo-work."
Showing off her folding skills. I handed Luci about 10 kitchen washcloths that just came out of the dryer, and Luci folded them and put them away. Can you tell she's proud of her work? I think she has chocolate on her mouth. (Takes after her mother!)
JT today. Cute, cute boy. Bryan kept busy on the computer most of today--he's in the background.
