This was our backyard classroom scene late this morning. Graham's experiment class came to a screeching halt so we could go watch this garter snake eat this toad. It took him around 40-45 minutes to finally get him down...but down the toad went! Graham, Abigail, Joy, and Esther had art this morning. They made a spring picture to welcome Spring in. Then Graham got underway with his experiment class...but was called outside before we got very far. What an experience for all to get to see how this snake managed to eat this fairly large toad. Then I had a quick bite to eat and it was back to the school room...well, after a call from my sister and a call from Melany. Elijah came over and had an art lesson too. He always tells me that he wants to do art too...so today he did. I think that "art" is still "paint" to him, but today he did a little cutting and some gluing and made a pretty spring picture like his siblings. Esther came over that and she read to me and finished her paper where she was counting to 100 by 1's. Woody has been in and out a good portion of the day. He has enjoyed working in the gardens. Late this afternoon he walked to the prayer room. While he was away I made a pot of soup. It is almost getting too warm for soup! I can't believe how warm it was for the first day of Spring.
