Found a baby turtle last week. Fascinated at its beauty. After the kids observed it a while, it made it safely into our pond.

Spring Equinox craft (by my girl) at co-op today

Planted two trees today. And that always makes me want to plant a loooooot more.

Traveling for the first time since Christmas. To see my family 3 hours away. Which was the last place we traveled as well. Looking forward to this trip. But also excited for some other destination trips coming up soon, I hope.

Co-op Tuesday

Learned about minerals and rock characteristics.

Also did some rock painting with these cool acrylic paint markers (pictured) and got free basalt stone arm massages from our in-house masseuse (aka a homeschool mom). 🙌🏼

Scraped my knee on concrete this afternoon, but probably not in the way you might think.

Two different real conversations with the kids on the way home in the car a few nights back: 1) Why glass is so strong, and 2) Where boogers come from

I like parenthood.

Some Lego Organization

Organized our “imagination” Lego pieces by color a few days ago. Wasn’t positive they’d stay that way. But so far, the kids have played with them more AND put them back in the right trays. ✨

Used these clear trays from Target and tried not to overfill them so that they can easily search for the piece they want.
