Big sister A tested the engineering of the 4th little pigs' house of logs in her "fairytale engineering" class, learned about Spain in Spanish culture club, and studied roots in her botany class.
Then sadly, she had a sore throat on Tuesday-Thursday and so we took it easy at home. I learned that I could add tea tree oil to our humidifier as sort of an herbal vaporub while they were sleeping. That seemed to help. We also drank lots of juice with echinacea mixed in. I told all the kiddos that we needed to all be healthy on/by Friday or else I would have to cancel the Easter Egg hunt we planned for Sunday. Positive thinking really works!
Brother M is getting to be a great helper. He LOVES making things and is always coming to me with projects that he wants to do - usually involving glue and scissors. He and A both love entertaining baby L, who is just "so cute!". They are still on their Uno game kick too.
Brother S has been collecting ladybugs in jars, digging for worms with brother M, and generally getting into mischief. Also, apparently anything that is light blue in our house belongs to him -- spools of thread, pins, cars, cups... He is making a little horde.
Baby L is as sweet and happy as can be.
