We have been super busy with all of school underway, field trips planned already, and tons of paperwork still coming home. Tara has had 2 major melt downs with the amount of homework and class work that is required in 2nd grade. She's asked me several times if she can go back to 1st. I know it's hard, but she'll get used to it. We canned 12 pints of salsa with all our garden tomatoes. We found out the reason our corn is so hard, is it's feed corn...or corn you grind into meal. That's why it was the only kind left. Our beans are starting themselves over again, after Gene tilled up the old plants, the beans began new sprouts. So, we'll have a second shot at that.
Jacob had an incident this week. He was riding under the cart (it had alot of space under it, not like Walmart karts), anyway, going out the door, the kart became hard to push and then there was a scream. His finger got stuck between the wheel and the bottom of the kart. Luckily I had just bought frozen peas, so we packed his hand up and drove home. He lost skin on the soft side and bruised his whole nail on the other. Unfortunately, it was the same finger he burned a couple years ago, the 3rd degree burn. I think he will not have a finger print on that one any more.
Tara got to dress up like a pirate and do the morning news this morning. She and her friend Hannah told all about the PTA membership drive. (so I didn't have to). They had a fun time and now she's a star at school.
Happy Birthday to Alayna. Jacob wants you to save him some cake.
Emily is so happy in Kindergarten. She runs in the house after school each day and shows me her green light...which means good behavior. She's having a blast being just like Tara.
Hope all of you are well.
