We calculated the amount of weight the bricks on our chimney actually total this morning. See image, you’ll see the problem. Lily pushes back pretty hard when asked to do mathematic calculations, but she does work through them with me.

Tinker Crate with Grandpa – they did the fiber optics constellations and the defy gravity game Grandpa tuned the piano and Lily has become fascinated with not only playing but watching the mechanics. Today she stated she’s going to […]
