Great Tuesday!

It was so wonderful to see the kids today and to pick up the daily routine with them.

We had a small group, with Dylan out sick. Get well soon, Dylan!

We watered the gutter garden.

We walked back into the Back Forty together to look at the pullets in their new pen, and feed them weeds and grass through their hardware cloth fence. We talked a lot about the fence not being strong enough to support a person's weight.

The children did not notice, and I did not mention for now, the beehive.

We said hello to the grown chickens, and Arsenic the Rooster said hello back!

The three children jumped into the red wagon and I pulled them to the brick pile to pick up some bricks that we used to plug potential holes in the pullet pen fence.

We went back into the playground and sang our going inside songs, then followed our inside routines.

Noah peeled the oranges, to go with pinto beans and corn tortillas, for our brunch.

When we went back outside, there were some exciting and beautiful moments of friends re-connecting. When Noah lost a shoe, Hugh came directly to his aid. They were both so intent, right up to the moment that I snapped this picture. I felt sorry that I intruded... Hugh quickly and competently applied the shoe to the foot, and off the two boys went!

See you all soon!
