Spring Flowers

Every month Josiah has been going to "craft night" which is a program that the library ran throughout the winter.  They listen to stories and then do some kind of craft which corresponds (usually to the season).  Today Josiah came home with these adorable flowers.  I love how they brighten up the table, and the cats won't even nibble on them!!  This was a very clever project - they are made out of painted egg cartons, tissue paper and pipe cleaners.  He is very proud of them!

Spelling

Asher has suddenly learned all of his letters numbers and is interested in spelling.  I was getting worried that he wasn't picking them up.  When I looked at Josiah's notes he was recognizing letters by 10 months so I was trying to work with Asher more.  He still wasn't learning them very well so I thought maybe he wasn't ready.  Then as soon as I dropped it, he got interested and started learning them very quickly and is now spelling some simple words.  He is very proud of himself!!  The videos in order are him spelling Asher, Josiah, truck and stop.
