Joining in with
Owlet et al. Today Child the Larger:
- Sketches planning, more sketches and more planning for the movie M woke up on Saturday morning wanting to make.
- All of the mazes from the local Library's "school holiday entertainment pack". Wow, I'm impressed with her maze solving ability.

- Painted a diorama of mountains against blue sky (acrylic paint this time)
- 4 pages of Miquon Maths Orange Book.
- Carried around the broody chicken, pushed her in the wheelbarrow and swung with her on the swing seat (chicken didn't like swinging very much).
- Watched segments of the latest Tinkerbell movie seeking inspiration for her own endeavour.

- Quizzed her brother endlessly about all his new words (many many many)
- Listened to an audio book

Child the smaller:
- Answered correctly every word his sister quizzed him about (since she had just modeled it for him when asking)
- Made quite a few deliberate jokes
- Was adorably cute despite the fact that he
- Insisted on the millionth read-aloud repetition of "Sparkle Fun Christmas Shapes" in that way only toddlers can
- Delighted me with his little pre-sentences such as "Mama. Apple. Up. Cut." ... "Shankyyooo."
And much much more between them of course.
