Have you been to the green belt lately? Our kids are having a great time there! The draw you might ask...lady bugs... tons of them. Yesterday I witnessed a humorous example of observation among the under 10 crowd. Ammon, Trevan, Ryan, Garon, Jacob, Christian, Charise, Kyle, and Bradley were keeping busy by seeing how many ladybugs they could catch and put in a butterfly net. Ryan called out, "Hey look at these two, they're 'dating'!" All the kids gathered around to spy on these two unsuspecting ladybugs. Then Trevan, in his 6 year old wisdom, corrected his big brother, "They're not 'dating', they're 'mating'!" The rest of the afternoon these 9 bug enthusiasts changed their game to how many 'mating' ladybugs they could catch.

He He -- I had to post abou thtis too. You just can't make stuff like that up.:) Thanks for letting me in on how "informed" my children are.
I'm so glad you found my blog--and now I've found yours! It was great reading your blog and seeing your cute little family. I think of you every time I pass the picture you gave me that is now hanging in my hallway--the one of the little boy with the bowl of oatmeal on his head. :)
p.s. Come back and visit my blog again--I promise to get better at updating. :)
