The Boys

Music Program

A couple of weeks ago we attended Davis Elementary music and art appreciation night. I went thinking it would be like their literacy night; travel from class to class doing different activities. Well I was wrong, it turned out to be their music program for the whole year. I didn't bring a camera or a video camera, and I wish I had. Sivai was really shy at first and I had to really coax him to go and sit with his friends, two little girls from his class that warmly welcomed him with hugs and smiles. Once it started he got really into the music singing at the top of his lungs and doing all the actions. I missed some of it because I was in and out of the hall with Lily. She wanted to be in the front performing too. One of their songs included dancing around the gym in a big circle to the music. It was fun to see him dance and sing with all the other kids. I'm still upset for not bringing my camera though!

“Worms”

This spring has a brought an over abundance of what I call “worms” to our little patch of land. They're little grubby green naked caterpillar looking things. Austin was completely fascinated. At the peak of the season we could collect hundreds of them a day! He stuffed them in his pockets, his shoes, and cups taken from the house. They were everywhere when I did laundry. I don't know why he thought he needed collect them, only to squish them. But he has proved to be a good exterminator. I haven't seen one in days. Oh, and they don't feel good when squished between your' toes first thing in the morning. Also, no pictures.

Sivai will have his first T-ball game this Sat. and we are all excited, I promise to get pictures. We are surprising the kids and taking them to Day out with Thomas (the train) in Heber City tomorrow, and I hope to get pictures as well.
