Michael’s taken some time off, and we’re staying home and doing things around our area. And, to tell the truth, around the house. Of course, the forecast is RAIN, RAIN, RAIN. Oh, well. Last week we had a whole bunch of nice weather, so I shouldn’t complain.
This morning, Michael took the kids to our local science museum. They had a great time. Lots of experiences to relate, funny stories to tell, and a butterfly landed on Simeon! It sounded like a lot of fun, and they saw just about the whole museum.
I spent the morning creating a big mess. And also some pickled asparagus.
It looks a little scary, doesn’t it? I’ll keep you posted on how it actually tastes.
This afternoon, after naps and quiet time, the kids and Michael did Dada’s legos, which is always a big treat. It doesn’t happen very often, but when it does, it’s a whole lot of fun. I think they played legos for two hours straight. And while they did, I made a dress for Hannah. We were all creating things together in the dining room, which made for a pleasant afternoon of family togetherness.
I’m optimistic that summer may actually come some day. And when it does, Hannah will need some clothes. Naomi gets lots of great hand-me-downs, so even though I’m sure I’ll buy and make things for her, I’m a bit more concerned about having some clothes for Hannah to wear. She was highly enthusiastic about this dress, which was gratifying. And it was a really simple pattern, so I put it together today! I foresee that this will be a popular pattern for some more summer clothes…
