April 28

After Isaac finished his homework this afternoon, he disappeared into the dining room with an empty plastic milk jug, crayons, and a pair of scissors. When he finally emerged an hour or so later, he very proudly showed me his creation:

He called it 'Flash' and was very excited to explain that he'd colored only one side because when it's held up to the light, the color shows through.

I love seeing my kids get so excited about being productive and creative. It's a huge mom-blessing.
