“THAT’S TOO LOUD”, says an annoyed and somewhat intimidated Cecily, who got to experience a fireworks show closer than she’s ever been before. Lily decided to do the evening on blades! We went to Pueblo, to the Riverwalk for the celebration. Fireworks and a live orchestra, playing, you guessed it, their idea of patriotic music […]
Pipeline, er Shower… OR, Turning Water into Air
Ok, so Lily is an inventor now. She’s also a scientist. Reader? Well, if it suits her, yeah… but don’t try to get her to read something you want her to. AND DON’T let her know you know she read something after the fact… way uncool. She’s picked up some new comebacks and comments of […]
Anti-Gravity Serum
Yesterday Lily and the neighborhood setup our family room for play; they turned it into a theatre, complete with snack bar and ticket counter. Lily was taking a turn as the associate behind the counter, so I ordered some anti-gravity serum. She turned around, picked up a cup, did something magical that I couldn’t see, […]
Look It Up
This morning was full of firsts for Bugz. And to think, she spent the night with a fever… While we were making breakfast, she noticed a dead bug on the counter. I don’t know for sure what the insect was, or where it came from, but it was tiny and just sort of lying there […]
Let's Build a Boat
This morning, while we were watering the sunflowers in Lily’s labyrinth (maze eventually, after they grow a bit), she decided she wanted to build a boat. She brought to my attention a rock that she had placed in a bowl, and asked for a bin of water. I decided we’d have some fun. 🙂 […]
Is It A Moth, A Bird, or An Owl
Today I walked outside and found a little creature lying still in an open box on our driveway. It looked dead, but after studying it for a moment, the eyes appeared to have life in them still. So, I got Lily to come check it out and we used a piece of paper to move […]
Adiemus. Really.
This conversation has associated posts here & here. _________________________________________________ Ok, so, I already suspected it, but, now I know. Lily seems to have inherited a fun trick from Russ. With music coming from both of us, and it being aural and sight, it’s not a surprise she’s exhibiting a somewhat natural knack for it.. But this was […]
Spell That, Color That In, Tsunami's, Water's Energy, and Plate Tectonics
Japan, washed away in a moment of massive energy liberation due to the same. Take a pencil, bend from both ends. Watch… it will break. The earth is no different… but try to explain the shifting of chunks of ground, pressing against each other to the point where they start to bend and eventually break, […]

Patterns In Nature: A Wasp's Creativity
We are using this (below) as inspiration to explore the patterns found in, and created by nature. Lily will generate her own something (yet to discover what she intends to create), and we’ll see what she uses to make whatever pattern she decides upon. Lily’s perception of the following images, consecutively, are: Spider Web Honey […]
