Short Notes
  • The snake escaped at Ms. Laura's house.  There are plenty of minnows nearby for her meals.
  • We experimented with different formulas for making paste.  Flour wins.
  • The first Elders Muffin Day was wonderful.  See Kaitlynn's journal entry on the "Creative Writing" page and Ms. Laura's account on the blog, www.tompromelem.homestead.com

Appreciations
The more the capacity to concentrate is developed, the more often the profound tranquility in work is achieved, then the clearer will be the manifestation of discipline within the child.
