-We went to story time at the library. All the stories, rhymes and songs had to do with frogs. They also showed a film called 'A Boy, A Dog and A Frog'.
-Jordin told us that they have a Little House Cookbook at the library, so we checked out the kids cookbook section and ended up hanging out there for quite some time, looking through cookbooks. We found the little house one and the girls each picked out a couple other to sign out, as well. We also found some books about the underground railroad.
-Jason read the girls a couple story books at the library.
-We walked home, stopping at the drug store to buy stamps, and thoroughly enjoyed the spring weather. The girls collected recyclable garbage to put in our recycling box at home which is something they do every time we are out walking.
-We read the first couple sections in "The Last Safe House" which is by the same author of "A Pioneer Story" and is written in the same format. It's about the escape of slaves from the southern states in the mid 1800's.
-We looked through one of the cookbooks Astrid chose and she picked out something to make for supper (spring rolls).
-The girls played while I napped with August.
-They played in the back yard a bit.
-Muirgen listened to one of the CDs she got at the library. When she listens to music she actually sits down and gives it her full attention, which I really like!
-Astrid prepared the spring rolls with very little help from me. I mainly just got down ingredients that were on high shelves for her. She even read and followed the recipe on her own. Muirgen helped with some of the chopping of veggies and some stirring.
