It snowed yesterday, so we took a walk in the mess. Yes, mess. Immediately after snow, it sleeted & rained. It was really rather yucky. Caleb agreed with me. So we walked to the end of the block then turned around back home. Still, it was a perfect day to discuss more about the muted colors Susan Jeffers used to illustrate Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening. Jimmy volunteered that he would use his "little bit of color" to draw the nativity scene on our front lawn, leaving everything else brown & white. (And yes, our Christmas decorations are still up. I'm considering having an Easter tree.)
We skipped our math lessons today, so we finished up with LotW work. We reviewed the N verse (which Jimmy has memorized already), read the O verse & its explanatory story, and then practiced writing m, N, n, O, & o. Randy helped him with the handwriting part, and he reported that Jimmy's m, N, and n were doing very well, but that Jimmy had some trouble with his first attempts at writing O and o.
