We're really getting sick of this rain.
Today everytime we got ready to go out it started raining when we were 30 metres from home although on the upside we did find some interesting critters & we still leave for our caterpillars, Trystan found a millipede & I was repeating what I told him about insects & the gigantic ones that existed 300ish million years ago & why they died out but he ended up in hysterics when it left as he'd been hoping to feed it an orange.
We did a lot of play with lego which was tolerable partially because I'd put down a sheet to make clean up easier & partially because we found such fun bits to play with today, Just to break up the lego we made snickerdoodles which on trysts request were a family of snakes instead of little round balls & then we played with lego more in the afternoon before he requested a rest & a movie.
I made lentil soup with tarragon which was fantastic & so much better than any lentil soup I'd ever tried before.
I did some photographing after bed last night & am hoping to upload after I finish with this.
Oh & trystan found his 3rd egg & it has been placed ceremonially in the carton with the other two for a special purpose as yet un-concocted.
Oh & I've been reading the well trained mind which is a book on home education as while I don't think I have the stamina for home educating my son I do intend to bulk out his education given that public education fails to educate gifted children, I'm still trying to find out what the rentals are like for 30 minute around mullumbimby given that their steiner school looks promising a the very least.
