Since Caden started attending a preschool two days a week, it is now taking us about two weeks to get through one unit. We just finished Unit 15: Elephant of My Father's World Kindergarten.
Verse: But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us. Romans 5:8 NIV
Theme: I will remember what God has done for me.
In Unit 15, we talked about elephants and how God made them big and strong. I was hoping to take the kids to the zoo but I wasn't sure if Gracie was up for it. Hopefully we'll go.
A lot has happened these past few weeks, I became an aunt! My sweet niece, Avery, was born 3 months early and is in the NICU at the Children's Hospital. She's a fighter and just precious. Please keep her in your prayers.
We've spent as much time as we could outside when the weather is nice. Over Spring Break, I took Caden and Gracie to see a children's opera. This year we saw The Ugly Duckling. My dad came with us which was really neat. Gracie slept through most of it. Caden loved it. He also went to tennis camp two days and has been having soccer practice and games each week. He has also been collecting seeds and planting them in various pots in our backyard.
Caden loves art. He loves to paint and draw pictures. I'm trying to incorporate things he's interested in our schooling. Today we did a science experiment where I put shaving cream in plastic bags and he added drops of food coloring to them. Then he mixed it to see what colors were made. He loved it.
One day we read a book about making igloos and decided to make igloos out of marsh mellows for our snack. Caden even made me a silly face with blueberries and a tomato one day. I love his creativity. There is never a dull moment.
