It's snowing!


It is snowing as I type. The above photo was taken from my window minutes ago. This is only the third snowstorm since we've moved here, so it's kind of an event. I don't even know how I'm supposed to find out if school in cancelled, but perhaps I'm resourceful enough to figure something out tomorrow.

Pascale has progressed far enough with her reading to read a simple book! They send these books home from school for her to read. They're really simple to match her reading level. They problem is, they are so simple that she only struggles through and reads the book maybe twice before she has it memorized and she's not bothered by all this reading nonsense any more. Good thing they seem to have an endless supply of these books at her school.

At Josephine's school this term, each week is devoted to one child, and they concentrate on something that child is interested in. This week is Josephine's week, and they are doing music! She's bringing her guitar in to show everyone. Maybe I'll let her bring in the drum set, too.

It appears as if this week's photos are devoted to precipitation and cubes.

Josephine has spent countless hours lately playing with her blocks


Then there are the legos, which are more Pascale's domain
