This Week in Photos [Watercolor and Gelatin Exploration]

It's always interesting to see the difference in how the children encounter different mediums and in this case, it was gelatin! We did this activity last year, and as you will see, it doesn't gets old.  Krista posted a write up below.

Mia celebrated her 4th birthday this week and we lit the birthday ring. It seems like just yesterday, Mia turned three!

We had an intimate farewell for Ms. Kellyann on Friday. We presented her with a photo collage of her year with us and quotes from the children, and enjoyed our last moments together with our sweet teacher and friend. We wish Kellyann all the best, and hope she can come by to visit us!

I also launched a Terra Luz facebook page. I had done one previously, but it apparently got 'cached', so a new one is up!

how lovely! i must say that i really enjoy what's able to be seen through the mirror at the light table. gorgeous photos as always...my mom is visiting this weekend and bought some jello (we later got some at WF's for Mia ;) we told her it was made of gelatin...an odd look came over her face when her Ita gave her a spoon and told her to dig in ;)

thank you for being such a huge part of her special day.

i'm glad they are enjoying the wheel barrows...those baby quilts are GORGEOUS, Melissa!
