May Mini

May (Mis)adventures

Long-awaited afternoon at the river
Only Aiden fell asleep on the way 
Wrapped against mosquitoes 
and threatening rain

That day we also discovered
two things 
that don't make 
good bow strings


An afternoon picking dandelions
 in the front yard
While mommy digs them up
Dumping dirt and spreading seed
While mommy tries to be patient

Silence and hard work
Aiden's gone inside
More done than expected
He's locked mommy outside!


Hands on school
Experiment day
Flour, marbles, and rocks
laborious measurements and notations

How high can we go?
How deep a crater can we make?
How far a floury splash?
Loads of messy fun
