Let's Go Fly a Kite

"Let's go fly a kite, up where the sky is bright, and send it soaring." Name that movie! Mary Poppins of course. Kristin got to make a kite at daycare today. Aaron helped her finish it with the string tonight. Now we just need some decent weather to see if we can fly it. Today had a breeze, but also rainy.

Kristin also learned about Add-er-pillers today at kindergarten. This was a math project/worksheet that involved adding and caterpillers and dice. Each circle on the caterpiller counts as 1. So, you roll the dice and draw that many circles for the caterpiller and do it again and add the 2 numbers together. Kristin also said instead of rolling the dice the first time you pick a number. She had fun showing Aaron how it worked and they got out some dice and did some new problems.

Kellen talked for about an hour after his bedtime last night and just wouldn't go to sleep. He finally got tired enough. He also woke up talking this morning. I guess he just has a lot to say. :) Normally I have to wake him up. Kellen had a good day today. He was busy playing tonight and helped me make up some Jell-o, a kid favorite in this house. He also asked me to read a book and made me move by saying "here" to the couch and "out" to me in the chair. He knows what he wants and is figuring out how to tell us.
