January Days

It's kind of hard to remember the colder days of winter - playing indoors with the dog . . .

. . . doing school work and reading on the couch . . . with Little Lady, of course. . .

. . . recess when the weather permits . . . soaking in the sun through turtlenecks. . .

. . . and more fun school . . . . like picking cotton . . . what? Yes, picking cotton! Well, actually they were cotton balls that I had glued cardboard seeds into for the kids to TRY to pick out.

They each had only one ball each to do and it took quite a while. This was suppose to allow them to see how hard it was before the cotton gin was invented. I think it worked.
