Atley - 07/29/2021

Atley ate French toast and dried plums for Breakfast. For lunch she ate pulled pork, ate whole wheat toast, peas, and two servings of watermelon.   

This first picture is from yesterday afternoon when Atley was creating with these little magnetic building pieces I have. She has been really interested in this activity for most of this week. It's always interesting how they'll do something and then not touch it for days or weeks and eventually come back to it. The following picture is left over from yesterday afternoon when Atley and Nora were building a private Spa area where the little guys were not welcome. The boys didn't really know or care that they may be missing out on something significant! Ha. 

Next picture: I have to tell you a story behind this picture. Avi is kind of interested in the fact that I'm color blind. For the last two weeks she's been coming to me every day with a couple of markers and asking, "Which one is the darkest or lightest?" Which is interesting to me because most people start quizzing me with identifying the actual colors. Haha. Today Nora and Atley asked me for the little pieces of paper you see in the picture in 5 different colors. Nora saw me struggling a bit with the colors and she (obviously assuming it was a lack of early learning) said, "You need to learn to say them!" LOL! Ok, I will. Atley said, "It's because you have glasses."That's it! Glasses have led to a color deficiency!

Last picture: Well Callahan is not here today or tomorrow so it was just Atley and Miles here while the other girls did Swim Lessons. Atley was lining up 2 - 6 cars and having them race to the bottom; straight down this ramp or down the curved ramp.
