Had a lovely morning that just flew by. Did all this before noon:
Ate a sweet breakfast on holiday placemats and River loved remembering to try to "eat a rainbow" by adding some carrots and grapes ;) (Been working on including seasonal traditions and making meals more fun so we get in more of a routine). After that he was excited to get out a book about crystals and look at some real ones before taking some pictures of his own. We would have made more music and drawn some pictures but we ran out of time before school! Stopped off at Grandpa Jack's on the way up to the bus so he could show me some of his science "experiments" (concoctions complete with a book of "secret formula" recipes :)). I was thinking how much fun it might be to get some supplies to make homemade lotions and shampoos with essential oils and let him go at it! Spent some time after he left picking out pictures for photo gifts and felt so grateful for a lovely warm drink and cookies made by a friend. Today was like a lovely peaceful island in the middle of my work week (hope everyone gets some time like that for themselves)!! Have a great day.
