Nature Journaling

My Nature Journal
After breakfast this morning and kids and I headed down to a nearby meadow to begin our nature journals. They were super excited because we were supposed to start them yesterday, but we got so into decorating our journal covers that we ran out of time. We plopped down in the tall grass with our newly-decorated journals, and our Spiderman pouch full of colored pencils and started drawing the amazing discoveries we made. The best part of the morning was watching the kids scatter all over the meadow looking for interesting things to draw, and then running back to show me their pictures. We stayed for an hour and I had to drag them back to the house. We saw wildflowers and honeybees and animal tracks and grasshoppers and seedpods. Later on, we even got to rescue a praying mantis from our garage.
We all miss Dad. He is in Boston. He had a job interview this morning. It's hard to imagine moving so far away. He is taking lots of video and pictures to show us our maybe new home. He will be home tomorrow night. Hurry tomorrow night!
