Saturday so far...

After breakfast, Timo writes and illustrates a poem and letter for Sophie. Poem goes
vat
hat mat
pat
cat fat
Yat Gat the cat sat on
the hery mat


Meanwhile Lennox and Caoimhe help with the dishes.


Some rapt children notice the first crocus bulbs in flower. Spring is here!


Timo creates an extinct volcano landscape with vegetation, various animal habitats featuring Aslan the lion and a bat colony that has inhabited the crater, caves for animals to shelter etc,etc. This is in the building mound of dirt that he and Jeremy are piling up from digging out tunnels under the house in order to replace the piles. Big job.


Caoimhe draws a picture of a new baby girl being born. The baby girl is Caoimhe.

And later paints a scene from a fairy tale about Snow White.
