We are having a pretty crazy spring here in Colorado. It's been unusually cold and snowy, and what's more is it will be seventy eight degrees one day giving us hope for more days like it and then two days later, there will be a huge snowstorm. It actually got up to 80 degrees today, and then there is more snow predicted for Wednesday. The last two Tuesdays have had snow storms and traffic is always terrible when it snows. This week, Jarom was almost late to school and Bryson was tardy for the first time ever because of it. It's the wet spring snow and it doesn't usually stick around for very long to sled or do anything like that, so Bryson has contented himself with shoveling it. He doesn't care if he's digging out the car or covering the table in our apartment's courtyard "like an ice cream sundae," he just enjoys being out in it and shoveling it with dad. I, on the other hand, am so ready for spring to stick around.

Home Preschool Activities
Bryson and I have been busy this school year. He goes to ECE (Early Childhood Education) in the mornings and works with his teachers doing their curriculum and then in the afternoons, Bryson and I do preschool activities. We've gone through the entire alphabet now and are still going strong with 100 Easy Lessons to Teach Your Child To Read. Bryson knows all his letter sounds and is reading simple sentences and short easy reader books. He's doing awesome, and he's learned a lot since August. Here are some of the activities we've done for the last half of the alphabet, letters M-Z (since there are previous posts on letters A-L here, here, and there's even more here).
M: Me
N: Nursery Rhyme
O: Ornament (Christmas)
P: Presents (Christmas Giving)
Q: Quilts
R: Rainbows
S: Stars and Solar System
T: Transportation
U: Uncles and Family
V: Valentine
X: X-ray
Y: "Yany, yarning Dr. Suess" (Read Across America Day)
Z: Zoo
