Well, Hunter has been busy the last week or so... tuesday night he had a concert of which i posted a youtube video clip of the 3rd grade singing (yes thats ALL of the 3rd grade in his school.. small hua!)
and today he finished (just in the nick of time!) his native american dwelling project, he chose to make an adobe and of coarse i couldn't just go buy clay i had to see if i could make it (I know you'd think i'd have learned by now!).. it might have been better if it had a week or so to dry but it turned out ok, i just couldn't get the clay to stick to the cardboard under it so i spent about an hour last night hot gluing it where it was coming apart.. (can't say this is what i drempt of when i was thinking of having kids!).. i could rant and rant about weather or not these projects really teach the kids something or just show how crafty their parents are but i have to say Hunter did the majority of the work on this one so i guess it acheved the desired effect..
anyway i think i also decided i have busy kids.. last night we rushed to baseball practice then directly from there to Cub Scouts meaning Hunter couldn't finish his math homework or finish the latters on his project so we woke up very early this morning so he could finish which he did in plenty of time but now i'm exhausted (of coarse i stayed up last night so his project would be ready for the final step this morning) hope Hunter is not falling asleep.. i know i am.. anyway tomorrow i go with him and the 3rd grade to Rocky Shores it's the ocean tide pools.. he can't wait and if i get to bed early (and maybe even a nap) i'll be excited about it too...
