June 17, 2009

My little Cricket could not be any more adorable.

Offering me a raspberry.

A sneaky little Suki who swiped her sister's raspberries when she thought no one was looking. Suki is wild about them.

"I ate all the raspberries, and Kate didn't get to enjoy a single one!"

Engrossed in a book.

Grace is showing her mad face. She was resting on the couch after injuring her left leg last night. I saw the injury as it happened and still am not sure just what hurt her, our best guess is that she pulled a muscle. We're hopeful that she is feeling better tomorrow.

Here she's punching out the pieces in preparation of assembling our glider model.

She is a good help at removing perforated void spots, determining shapes, deciding which way things should be put together.

And she's great at modeling the way the Wright brothers' glider flew. As we assembled the model we talked about their flight at Kittyhawk, the year, and a bit about the brothers.

Kate examines the glider on the front of her book.

Kate looks out the window.


Suki is never far from Kate.


This is the first picture I ever took of Grace where she reminded me of her uncle Dominic, it's something about that lopsided grin.


She just loves to laugh with Suki, who's singing a silly song across the table.

Kate enjoys sitting on a step and kicking her feet.

Looking for Suki.

Suki obligingly comes over to play.

We also talked about Amelia Earhart today and really loved these two short videos. Suki points out the Atlantic Ocean that she crossed in 1928.
