Crazy-close encounters with turtles, entertaining kids with no toys + "Where are all the unicorns?"
- Maybe someday this'll be no big deal, but today is not that day. I took this with my iPhone with no zoom, turtles just hanging out, not spooked at all while we waded in the water...
- Kids are loving "Sight Word Bingo," good for keeping schoolwork going. Our markers are little shells we found on the beach...
- Zo a few days ago, when we were descending through clouds into Maui: "Mommy! Where are all the unicorns? Don't unicorns live in the clouds?"
- Amazon kid radio is saving my life right now as I try to entertain children with zero toys. Actually we're doing a pretty good job between listening to songs and coloring and playing with boxes eg the one the new coffee maker came in. And blanket forts. Helps that we can go for a walk and/or to the playground and/or to the beach every day as well...
- Love how easy it is to call or text the mainland from here...people sound like they're right next door...
- And speaking of next door, ahhh...the rooster next door that starts crowing at 4:25 each morning give or take a minute or two...I haven't decided yet if I love him or hate him...
Happy Wednesday!
