Wild kingdom

Last weekend, Jack went to his friend Grayson's fourth birthday party. The entertainment was a reptile guy which was pretty cool. Jack impressed me by touching each of the creatures that the handler brought with him.

First a milk snake (not a coral snake)

Then a big, old tortoise

And an Australian skink that can make itself look like an Adder, one of the most deadly snakes on the planet (honestly, I don't want to run in either one)

Lastly a boa constrictor.

ok, maybe he wasn't that into the show. :)

School Projects

Jack has a school project due this Friday. The project is to visit a specific historic landmark in the city and then put together a write-up about the visit and place. Jack's location is Hamilton Grange which was the country home of Alexander Hamilton. We visited a few weeks ago (yep, we've have the assignment this long). Finally, Jack started putting together the project today. OMG, it was like watching me from 30 years ago. There was denial and defensiveness, then came tears and finally he produced really good work. If this is what the next 15 years are going to be like, we are in trouble. Also - sorry Mom, I know I tortured you with this experience many many times.
