Frog Eggs Day 1 |
Frog eggs Day 1 |
So my mother came up on Wednesday to celebrate her early birthday and to watch the kids Thursday and Friday. Erin was headed up to Baltimore, I think, for a home school convention with our friend Heather. We didn't want me to have to take anymore leave so Mom came up. It had been a while since we all saw each other anyway. Thursday, it was a great day so Mom took the kids across the street to the sandpit/marsh for a nature walk. I don't know how long they spent over there but they brought back the following. A small pimento jar full of tadpole eggs, or I guess frog eggs that will turn into tadpoles, an unidentified animal bone the size of a human hip bone and an old bottle. I've already watched the eggs go from little clear blobs with a black dot to clear blobs with a larger oval looking shapes in the middle. Pretty cool. Now as I sit here and type this on a beautiful sunny Saturday, my boys are in the front yard playing baseball with the neighbor boy, Nate, only 3 kids, but they're making it work. I love it when the kids are out doing the things kids should be doing. Getting dirty, skinning knees, and battling imaginary monsters.
