This post is a few days old but I couldn't pass up the cute pics.

We are studying E & F.  I decided from the Letter of the Week that I wanted to do the egg carton project with my 3yo.  Emerald, the angel in my backyard, was scheduled to come and be with him while I took the baby (yea...he's almost 2) to therapy.  So I handed that project off to her.

Now...if I would have done the project, we would have cut out the cartons and DRAWN the eyes and antennae with a Sharpie. 

Not Emerald...

Since it was a beautiful day, she first took Tre' outside and read the "E" and "F" books with him  on the trampoline. How fun!

Then she marched Tre' out the front door and took him on a nature walk.  They collected leaves and rocks so that the egg carton caterpillar would be in it's natural habitat.  I had no idea of what was happening b/c I was with my little one at his appointment.  When I got back home I was met with a surprise.

Here's the finished project. 
Praise the Lord for photos that keep better than the actual projects!

All of this happened on the same day as our visit from the fire truck.

What an amazing day.  It would have been good anyway.  Emerald made it great. My 15yo made it even better by snapping great photos (in between her schoolwork) so I didn't miss out on sharing the joy!
