the children



I don't want to admit that summer is coming to an end.  Some of the days were very long trying to keep all of the children happy and healthy. I have enjoyed watching them play and running after them as they squeal with laughter.  I wish I could keep up, but I can't!  I hope some good memories have been made here for them.  I have wanted to give them freedom to learn and create while conscious of those around them.  I've seen some pretty nice artwork and been impressed with the thinking that goes on.  Having the time to watch and listen has been priceless.

                                           Setting up their bikes to sound like motorbikes.

This little guy is one of my favorites.  Clive raised him from a tadpole, and you can see he hasn't gotten very big.  Clive loves his animals and is still asking for a lizard.  And I'm still asking for a cat.

                                                     The sky is the limit.
                                                  Go for it!
The vine that I thought was kiwi's but then thought I was wrong.  Upon further investigation, I found these hiding in a humungous vine that wants to take over the apple tree.  There are only five.  I believe major pruning is in order.  The shears and I will become one this fall.
