A bitty day.

We seemed to be in and out a lot today so we never really settled into work. We did get most of our normals done but not alot else. We had to pick up the car from the garage, deliver unsold nearly new sale stuff back to the seller, go to swimming and a few other mundane jobs. Not as much fun as yesterday when we visited the local mosque with our home ed group and then ended up going back to merry's to play. The visit to the mosque was interesting and generated a lot of good questions. I have visited a lot of old mosques in my travels but this was my first visit to a new mosque. It was beautiful, in its simplicity, especially the caligraphy. Thank you so much to everyone who made the visit possible and to andre who acted as our guide. He presented the children with their names in Arabic at the end which was a lovely touch.

We have declared thursday to be science day and sam is thrilled. There are about 4/5 experiments that we should have done and haven't so we will tackle them all at once. We will also start our chicken. M has said we have to keep it outside-just hope a fox doesn't get it!
