Farm Day!
Today was another school-family partnership day for Brian’s class at Root! This time, Brian and I drove out to NC State’s Animal Science center. It was a decent drive outside the city, and as we were bumping along the fields (they had us drive right out into the pastures to park), Brian commented that we were really going out to the farm! We walked through the fields to the barns, and quickly met up with Ms. Sarah Catherine and Ms. Misty. It was looking like rain, and...

She and I had a girls’ night while the boys went to a hockey game. Brian had a special treat there, since Stormy visited our section! Brian got to spend an extra amount of time with him (yay for a slight scheduling...
Read MoreBrian’s Solar System
Just a quick brag post–check out Brian’s solar system! His preschool class all made construction paper solar systems and displayed them outside the classroom, and I’m not exaggerating to say that Brian’s was far and away the very best one. I would have been hard pressed to identify any of the others as a solar system at all, but Brian’s details, like rings around Saturn and Uranus, dwarf planets, land and ocean on Earth, and especially the asteroid belt, just...
