Notes from Greencastle

Oct. 7, 2006

In observance of the Feast of St. Francis . . .


 . . . we assisted the many brothers fire ant into the arms of sister death.  Also complimented the Egg Lady on her dog.  This made the Egg Lady happy; the dog, on the other hand, would have much preferred I toss the blue rubber ball he presented to me.  Maybe next year.

    Meanwhile our resident book-eater, age two, was discovered feeding a book to her teddy bear.   Other toddlers give their baby dolls pretend bottles, but nothing so pedestrian is happening here.  Apparently she is trying to teach the next generation to love books as well.  Hint: buy stock in 3M -- we are going through loads of clear packing tape as we salvage what the bookworm leaves behind.  On a more positive note, said bookworm was practicing her sharing and taking turns skills -- she and teddy were alternating bites.

Why "Greencastle"?

We have a green castle in our back yard. We named our school after the castle. (We were required to name it something. I don't know why. It was on the form.) Now I've named my blog after our school. Because it's supposed to be a blog about our homeschool. But I blog about other things, too.

The Holy Father Says

"The starting point of being a Christian

-- and therefore the origin of our witness

as believers -- is not an ethical decision or

a great idea, but the encounter with the person

of Jesus Christ."
