Skating

Madison went skating with her girl scout troop yesterday evening. Roy did not want to take her so he skated on his duty. This is her 2nd time to skate and she really likes it. I was anxious she would give up when she fell, but she just picked herself up and kept going. I couldn't resist the "fall" picture. It was poor lighting so the photos aren't the best.

Some things never change

Hi,

Madison's grandmother, Nanny, is here to help me while I recover from my hysterectomy. She has been a great help, three squares a day. Last year in kindergarten, Madison's class planted a lima bean to see how they grew. Well of course she wanted to plant her newly sprouted plant in our garden. We have a huge vine with lots of bean on it. The only problem is us city dwellers had no idea when they were "done" and what to do with them. Well, Nanny to the rescue. She saw the plant full of beans and promptly had her son Ha Ha Ha pick them with her. It is not like he has a business to run or anything. We had a great dinner of them that evening. The picture shows Madison shelling beans with her grandmother. She thought it was great fun!
