One of our teeny tomato plants (if it was an animal, this plant would be the runt of the litter) has a teeny tomato on it.  Actually, it has *two* teeny tomatoes, which would explain why the plant’s growth is stunted.  I am contemplating committing tomatocide in order to allow the plant to begin growing.  Tomatocide would hurt me because throwing away two homegrown tomatoes is unheard of in this household, but I have to think of the greater good.

John has had two rough nights in a row.  Two nights ago, he had a nightmare that resulted in him sleeping on the floor in our bedroom.  Last night, he also ended up on the floor of our bedroom and, eventually, into our bed when I got up this morning.  As an unwelcome side effect of his two rough nights, I also had two rough nights.  Here’s to hoping the cycle doesn’t repeat again tonight…

Laura’s first two days of school work from EEE Summer Academy include a prehistoric cave drawing, a quiz on Ancient Egypt (12 of 12 answers correct!), a drawing of a cat from Ancient Egypt, and an Egyptian headdress.  So fun!

Laura started EEE Summer Academy today at Smithton Middle School.  This is her art themed week and today she made a prehistoric cave drawing.  She declared that EEE Summer Academy  is great and said that she wants to go back tomorrow.

Don’t look now, but we have a SECOND new bike rider in our house!  Go John!!!!  It may have been a struggle to get him to ride and believe me when I say there was drama, but he did it!  Apparently, the promise of a Bomb Pop won out…

A RAIN-FREE, beautiful Saturday afternoon.
