what a delicious cake, amos made some nougat and we all loved it, absolutely loved it.
and then there is an other wonderful sunny spring day, it's the 29th of february what fun it is to add just one day this year, we talked about the whole adding a day every four years, that it is called leap year and so on, and once more i'm carried back to homeschooling. learning what crosses our paths, just going about things we are seeing and experiencing, taking the time to research and find out what's all about it. some fun facts at bbc's news magazine
and today we did just this, as the kids had the day off, we love love love it. elias was baking under amos' supervision, he made muffins to sell together with a friend, to raise funds for the wwf-gray whale project. they made a good junk of money and had fun in the process. i love learning by living!
the girls thoroughly enjoyed the warmth and felt like celebrating it with lots of water... in the process thea got to change her outfit twice, o well i don't mind helping her with this on a day like today. and the chives seem to grow an inch a day, i'm already looking forward to get the first cut.
my chore today, i got to collect all the pine tree branches, which where on the flower beds around the house, spring is sprung.
i'm sure there is more in the coming weeks, as the days get warmer and we don't have to layer anymore. today was the first day naomi asked for her sandals again...
