Surviving the Gray

Yesterday I just couldn't get excited about going outside even for a simple walk. I slacked off and we did other fun things. I let the kids skip naps. Instead, we wrote down fun ideas to put in a jar and randomly draw out. There were several crafts, some reading activities, one outside, and three educational television opportunities. Wouldn't you know they randomly chose two of three?!? Our friend Morgan came to visit and randomly chose painting. Here they are. The two older girls are creating mini masterpieces, the middle two are having fun swirling and mixing paint, and the youngest is eating.

Simon's first painting. I was so proud.

Green has to be good for you, because it's the same color as lettuce. So there you go. Simon is going "green".
