arts & crafts....

We have been sick for the entirety of winter so far. that is the price we pay for attending pre-school. they say by kindergarten, they will have super immunity. right now, it just sucks.

the best thing about pre-school in my book is teaching my wee boys how to sit around a table and do arts & crafts. i could not master this alone before (my boys have my dreadfully short attention span, you see).

Days like today when the rain is falling and they have exhausted every single disney DVD over the course of this winter-O-sickness, we sit around the table with stacks of construction paper, crayons, paints, stickers and sometimes homemade playdoh. i am the mom that plasters her fridge with all these fabulous works of art. The creativity spills out to other things as well. the power of observation...so amazing in these wee beans. today wyatt was playing with is Mr. Potato Head collection (there is mr. carrot, yam and corn too).

He says, "Hey mommy, look. it's Nana!"
