This morning we had to go do our grocery shopping, as I wasn't able to yesterday, due to the party. Jen: "You can make it an educational experience!" Me: "I just want to get the shopping done!" So it wasn't educational. Then home for recess at G's house and lunch, then fortunately for me to not have a total waste of a day, the Early Simple Machines II kit arrived from Lego. As I was sorting through, counting pieces to make sure it was all there, E came in and asked about it. I told her it was a new toy for her and T to make machines and cool things with. I said "You can play with it until it's time to go to your dance class" She said, "What about school?" I said "This is school today." E: "Wow. It sure doesn't look like school." Me: "That's kind of the point"

So there you have it, a little socialization, a little engineering, and some dance and tumbling. Whew!
