Wednesday

~Rough morning. Let’s not get into it.
~M’s EF came by and we did our thing.
~Kids built houses and other things with Lincoln Logs.

~M and I searched iTunes for more podcasts she might be interested in. If we or I like any, I might get around to reviewing them here.
~M played a bit on PBS kids. She came across some facts she liked so she wrote them down in her notebook like Jack. This required some spelling practice and sounding out of words.
~Lunch.
~Kids played with toys.
~Left early for M’s speech appt so E could nap in the car. It took him awhile to fall asleep and by this time we were quite south so I decided to drive around to find the wing I could have sworn existed in Otay somewhere. Turns out that Googling for “Silverwing Park” and “Plane Crash” never worked because the right answer was “Montgomery Park” and “First Manned Controlled Flight”. Moral of the story is never trust your 8-year-old memories. In any case we found the wing and learned some cool history.

~M’s speech appt and E played on the computer and then played with puzzles.
~Ran an errand to Costco.
~Home for a major tantrum quiet time and dinner.
~Stories and speech at bedtime.

We had tons of great conversations (none of which I can remember right now) and listened to my Celtic music and ate traditional American-Irish food.
