Rattlesnake – Sonoran Desert





Hayden has been under the weather and missed Tuesday of school. Last year, Hayden and Maycee both had perfect attendance for the entire year. I think that is awesome considering they were in 2nd and Kindergarten. I am just hoping that this is the only day he misses. This is the child that hates the doctor’s office and cannot swallow medicine without throwing up. Needless to say we were at the doctor twice – once when they opened to get an antibiotic and once immediately after lunch when he threw up the first dose of amoxicillin. I gave him the options – 19 more times of that or a quick shot. Smart boy chose the shot that lasted only 13 seconds and we know that because he counted….and we are much better!

I guess I have been in a fog lately because I have thought all week that next Monday was September 17th giving us an extra weekend to prepare a diorama on rattlesnakes in the desert. Last night at roughly 11:00, I (oops – I mean we :) ) finished the project and here it is……I only have two blisters from the glue gun and a complete mess on the kitchen table, countertop and floor…………BUT it is finished and turned in today! Hayden – I so enjoyed spending time with you on this and I think I learned more about the Sonoran Desert than you!

  2. Well............it takes an awesome color printer from your work and that is about all. Steady hand to cut, some foam and glue gun. Thanks for the kind words....I need them today. I made Hayden label everything and lay it out.
