Day 82 - Monday, March 23, 2009 -

Today I was the guest reader in Liam's class as part of "March is Reading Month". I read The Giving Tree by Shel Silverstein and then led a "book club" discussion on whether the kids thought it was a happy story, a sad story, or whether they thought it was both, or were undecided. It was a lot of fun to hear their opinions, and to watch the kids change their opinions after hearing what others had to say. (Liam took this picture!)

So, how did I spend my second day of Spring? Spring cleaning the laundry room! It took me about 7 hours, but it is now spotless (including UNDERNEATH and BEHIND the washer and dryer!) I continued to purge items we no longer use/wear. SUCH a good feeling!! (Yes, this kind of stuff really makes me thrilled!)

Liam got to go to his friend's birthday party at the Lake Orion McDonald's. Notice the water bottle? That's Liam's gift to the birthday boy. In addition to holding the kool-aid packet, it's holding the gift card that we bought for him. See! I already put my Stamp Camp project knowledge to use!

Stamp Camp was at my house this month! What a fun time!! I had the normal Stamp Campers over and then some of my ScRap SiStaZ. There were 15 of us in all. We made these adorable projects. A cute card with an embossed lemon, an ice cream on a popsicle stick card, and an awesome water bottle pocket to hold a packet of kool-aid or lemonade. So cool!

Owen has recently started to LOVE the computer. Batmanbrave, Webkinz, Caillou. He can spend hours on Kev's laptop, with his little earbuds in, playing away. Liam calls him a technogeek. Nice.

First Frosty Boy run of the (almost) season! Liam was festive and ordered a lemon-lime (green) slush/freeze thing. Not me, I had my good ole standby, peanut butter cup flurry. MMM
