you don't see that in public school

I'm back. Well, at least for today.

Another post of "you don't see that in public school." Well, okay so a student in public school might be able to eventually take a cooking class in junior high or high school but not in 2nd grade. Last week Caedmon learned how to make an Egg in a Toast Hole. He made them for all of us the morning he learned (with a little supervision). He still has that "I'm afraid I might get burned" thing going on with his hands, but he did great! He will eventually learn to cook like a fearless mom who is more concerned with ruining the food then burning the tips of fingers.

Tonight we will be planting the garden at the new house. We're doing The Family Crawford Garden, which mostly consist of Uncle Eric and myself caring for the garden and everyone else helping by eating what comes out of the garden. Which seems to be working out so far. I told Eric that I'm not picky about how it gets planted as long as it doesn't look butt ugly.
I do want the kids to help out so they can learn about gardening. It will greatly benefit them into adulthood. I would just LOVE it if all three of our kids ended up having bright green thumbs. We shall see.... I'm pretty excited for them to help pick the produce. It is both a chance to appreciate hard work and and see what God can do with a seed, dirt, water, and some sunshine.
