Thankful: that he has a passion and talent and practices to improve.
Thankful: that homeschooling gives him lots of time and opportunity to hone his skills.
Here is his latest video/drawing. He'd LOVE if you went to youtube and left him a comment or friendly critique. (for more videos by Gavin, visit his Yutube Page; dashermkii)
Truth Is: I am sporting fake fingernails. The kind you buy at Rite-Aid and glue on. I fingernails are thin, peel, rip, and split. I had 4 ripped/split nails last week and got tired of it. They kept catching on things and getting ripped further. If I had time & money I'd have a nail salon just paint them with acrylic- so I don't look like... a chick with long pink fingernails.
Thankful: for options to improve my fingernails.
Thankful: for Superglue- good for fingernails AND lifting fingerprints!
Truth Is: We raise and harvest mosquito larvae.
Thankful: I can't really think of thankfulness for this one... I am thankful that over 20 of the tadpoles survived into froghood.
Truth Is: I found some recipes in my new book "Food the Die For!". Recipes that sound yummy and I want to make. But, truth is, no one else in my immediate family will eat this stuff.
Thankful: for friends who will come to my house for garlic soup and squash & chestnut stuffed ravioli.
Truth Is: I would LOVE to serve on Jury Duty. I have been 'called' 3 times but they always end up not needing me. :: pouty face :: But the people that do NOT want to serve and try to get out of it- end up the ones that get to do it.
Truth Is: I AM LOOKING FORWARD TO SEEING MY BOYS IN THEIR PLAY NEXT WEEK... darn fake nails and trying to type. I hit the CAPS LOCK,
Thankful: for the chance for Connor and Ki to act and perform!
Connor as Henry the Night Watchman
Play: "After Hours"- performed by Central Coast Homeschool Theater Ensemble.

Kimberly,
Tell Gavin that the Manga of the cat was awesome. I asked my daughter to view it with me. She says she is not good at animals but maybe she will try it with the ideas from the youtube video.

I need to be mindful as well of those things my kids LOVE to do, have a passion for, even if I don't like them myself :)
Hope the play is awesome! I'm sure it will be :)
I'm not sure why you'd be thankful about the mosquito larve either. But if you ever run out, we can send you some.
(Our house is on a street that dead ends into a nature perserve of wetlands.)
I am thankful that I didn't get rained on (much) while delivering mail today...
...that my boys took showers the first time I asked tonight...
...and that I live in New England, home to no tornados.
