Oh, snow

While the bigger girls have been enjoying the snow a great deal, Johanna is far less enthusiastic. 
It took about 7 minutes to get her ready to go out.  She was back inside about 10 minutes later.

The return on investment is hardly worth the effort. 
And I know I could technically insist on her staying outside.  But I wouldn’t do that.  See… I always hated being told to go outside.  I pretty much never liked being outside.  I still only like it if there is eating or socializing involved.  And even then I’m not wild about the whole thing.  Unless I am on a beach, or at an amusement park.  And I’d never do either of those in the snow.

Disciple of the Day

Each week a student in the 3 y.o. class gets to be the Disciple of the Day. They hold the flag, hold the Bible, and act as line leader to and from gym class.  It is a great honor.

It was Johanna’s turn.  ♥

Keeping busy

Katriel is busy learning all about her world.  She spends a lot of time in the “Duck Pond.”  (That is the large gated area of the living room.  I don’t have a picture, yet.)
When she’s not in the “Pond” she likes to take apart this cupboard.

None of the other kids ever did this.  We had too few low cupboards in the other house for me to have a kid-safe cupboard.  And I never thought of it with Johanna.  Katriel found it one day and now she heads to it every chance she gets.  It has allowed Stewart and I to get English 8 done most days.  🙂

Ready to wear

Hanny likes us to pick her clothes out the night before, which we are happy to do for her.
This morning when I went in her room – this is what I found.

That is not how I had laid them out!

She’s so cute!
