Well, yesterday was another great day. Andy and I put our first compost into the garden for spring! What an exciting time. Andy looked so cute barefoot, work gloves and his little wheelbarrow. He hauled his barrow into the garden and dumped it out and then came back for more. Andy has turned into quite the compassionate little boy. He saves the caterpillars from certain death on the road and the worms off the drive way after a rain. Which he also now knows to put them in the compost bin or pile. Andy's newest antics are to say, "I don't care" and "Nothing...." with a smile on his face. Sometimes I just have to look at him in a certain way and he says, "Nothing...." Like he knows I want to know what he is up to. Gabby, on the other hand, readily tells us about her day. She is begging her teacher for homework, which has been promised to start this week or next. Gabby is becoming a strong reader and loves art. Andy will be the musical one and gabby will be the artistic one. Gabby loves to draw and recently found a "How to draw pets" book in our cabinet and came out with some really good drawings. Currently, she is making an airplane out of a cardboard box. Well, time for bed. For the kiddos, that is... One of my favorite parts of the day. Not just that they are going to bed, but because we get to read together and Gabby reads to us, also. We get to snuggle and just have a relaxed quiet time together. Oh, and Gabby's newest and greatest ideas? She suggested playing a song while they brush their teeth so then would know how long to brush. I thought, what a great idea! She later confessed that she had heard the idea on a TV show. Oh, well, good idea, none the less.
