Cousins


The house is quiet right now, and for once this is not a happy thing. Wuggie's Cousins and Aunt and Uncle just left, Wuggie left for school with a tearful goodbye, his dad headed off to work, and I am at my computer, listening to the quiet of a cold snowy day, and waiting until I can pick Wuggie up at his bus stop. The weekend was fun and filled with shrieks, giggles, spinning and snuggles. We were blessed with just enough snow to put on snow boots and make a snow man, but not too much to keep us from the ChiliFest on the commons or from the science center. We will miss our cousins until we can see them again. (Next time, Wuggie says, a Magic Show!)

Dolomite is Magic!



We left this rare rock called Dolomite in vinegar for a few days, and by today it had so many crystals on it we think that if it had one drop more it would explode with crystals! (Wuggie)
