huffle snuffle - woolly bear


Recently, Emily check out What’s That Sound, Woolly Bear from the library. We read it almost every day… if not several times a day. A couple of days before we took it back to the library we noticed a woolly bear in out back yard and now a second one has shown up. I am debating on if we should bring them in for the winter so that in the spring she can watch them spin their cocoons and turn into tiger moths. There is a lot of great information on the web on raising them it is just if we put the effort in for the winter, those little guys lead a harsh life cycle. For now we enjoy going out and seeing how they are doing.

travel woes

My little Emily, all my travel has really been hard on you lately. For those in the reading audience, I was on the East Coast (Long Island and New Jersey) the week of the 10th and in Illinois the week of the 17th. When I got back, you didn’t want to leave my side. In fact, you didn’t even want Daddy to go to work! You have had a few rough mornings where you have made it clear that you would prefer to stay home. If only it worked that way.

Only one more trip for me this year, my sweet girl (next week in NY, NJ, and CT) and then I am “grounded” until after your brother or sister arrives. I have to admit, I am looking forward to not traveling for a while. I love interacting with my customers, but it is so hard to be away from you and Daddy.
