When will it end???

The cold is driving me bananas. All I want is a little sunshine. I really can't complain, too, much though. We're getting quite a bit of school work done. And that's always a great thing. Yesterday was all about ancient Egypt and the first farmers. My 4 year old couldn't get enough of it. The only parts that had her covering her face was when it registered that there wasn't any indoor plumbing in those days. The clay pot filled with sand, sitting under a wooden makeshift seat, didn't go over so well with her. She wasn't too keen on the whole mummification process either. She said we needed to stop talking about that now because she was to young to know about it. Can you imagine? The things kids say. So in actuality they really are listening when we think they are not. Unfortunate for me she took very well to other parts of the Egyptian study. She's wishing for a sickle now, because she says she wants to cut grain. That should be interesting. I'm not really sure where, in this city, she plans on cutting any grain. Maybe she'll settle for a pair of craft scissors and the 8ft weeds growing in the flower garden. I don't know. We'll see what she thinks about that. She, also, adored the section on making jewelry. Which I understand completely! How can you not love to make things...especially jewelry. So....I had every intention on listing new jewelry on dahliasroses.etsy.com but I think I got pretty side tracked trying to catch up on other things that needed to be done. Hopefully tonight will prove to be a little more eventful than the night before.
