Science Camp

Img2013-08-22_0025rs

A friend of mine organizes a few science day camps over the course of the summer for a group of friends. She is a fantastic teacher, and I am grateful, GRATEFUL, for her willingness to share her gifts and knowledge with us and with my boys. The kids spent a day dissecting sharks and learning about the digestive system. Then they spent two days learning about rocks (including a rock hunting expedition). Today and tomorrow they are learning about plants. Today’s class ended with a hike in the forest (Leif, Lola, and I joined them).

And just for a little less-than-lovely reality, Luke took this (blurry) picture of me towards the end of the power-hike, after I carried Lola most of the way and was sweaty and exhausted…
