scavenger hunt



We went on a hunt for:
  • a mushroom
  • a twisty stick


  • acorn caps

  • two small matching shells

  • two oak leaves

We found a twisty stick, oak leaves and many matching shells....and a fresh, cool day at the beach.

I had wanted the mushroom to show Liv spore prints and the acorn caps to make fall fairies for the nature table. Oh well, we'll have to go on another scavenger hunt soon.

I had my own list on our expedition....

  • lots of photos

Thanks for sharing your photos. They are beautiful, as always. I love your idea of a scavenger hunt and I will do that with my five year old nephew the next time we get together. We love walking in the woods here in Indiana, and a scavenger hunt would definitely make it more interesting for children. Jackie, you are full of great ideas. You are such a great Mom. I can tell : )

Hugs,
Barb

Just read your post about deciding to home school Liv again. I know my 2 cents don't mean squat, but for what it is worth, you are her mom and you do know best. To hell with anyone else. You hold your baby girl close and keep doing what your doing. You will find a new normal and maybe one of these days she will decide she's ready. In her own time.

What fantastic scenery you have.

Some days you can have a good time, amongst all the grief. Those days come more often, with time.

For now, enjoy them when they come.
Spirits up.
