Liam’s Soccer

Liam didn’t score too much today because (1) the coaches decided that the kids needed two very long water breaks, (2) the girl who played keeper for the whole game on the other team held on the ball for a good thirty seconds every time she touched it, and (3) Liam played keeper for awhile and didn’t get to play forward too much. He did almost score after kicking the ball while playing keeper, though.

He scored from here, but I didn’t get it.

Lyndale Farmstead

Helena was putting the finishing touches on her state project (putting stickers on it, some of which never did make it home as you can see on the project itself) and Liam was practicing with his team before the game began, so Ada and I played on the playground with the caterpillars.

“Ada, I can see your underwear!”

“I know. Everyone could see them at school today, too.”

I was worried that she’s stop climbing and using the monkey bars if the other girls in her class didn’t do it as much as Ada does, but she seems to still love it, as you can see by looking at her blisters.

Helena’s State Project

Helena had her state report presentation at school today. The kids sat at desks around the classroom’s perimeter and parents could talk to the kids about the projects and write comments about them.

Helena also had artwork up. She was a bit confused as to why both the finished project and a draft were up, but she was happy about it.
