We have spring fever!!! We have been stuck inside too much this winter. There have been a few real nice days and have enjoyed getting out a bit. Isaac still wants to go out fully dressed for a snowstorm with snowpants and gloves but Tess is fine with no jacket and only one shoe!

This photo says, YAY!!!! I'm free at last!!!

Why did the chicken cross the road?

Katie's 1st grade class is hatching chicks and my kids are fascinated!
For 3 days now that is all that I have heard about. Yesterday I took the kids down to see what this is all about and I have to admit, it was pretty cool. The first chick out had hatched that morning and 2 more had made their way into this world by the time we had gone home. Two more hatched this morning. Katie, with tears in her eyes, last night said "I feel like I was there when new things were being created". She is definatly related to Grandma Shepherd.
First thing this morning Isaac was dressed and waiting by the door to go see the baby chicks. Mrs. Dunaway let the kids all hold a fuzzy little baby to have pictures taken.
Katie is so taken with the babies that she can hardly stand to leave the class at night. This takes me back to our occasional trips to the Animal Ark to see the puppies and kittens. She would cry the whole way home and then some. PLEEEASE, CAN I JUST TAKE ONE LITTLE ONE HOME WITH ME!!! They can have Magnus! PLEEEASE!!!!
After school as I was buckling Isaac into the van at last he looked at me with a big smile and said, "Mom, why did the chicken cross the road?"
