Kaleb got to bring home the science backpack from school. Inside we found a lab coat, safety glasses, and a book of very cool science experiments. Kaleb's charge was to choose one to conduct at home so that he could demonstrate it in front of his class on Friday. He chose Woody Dough. This experiment requires the following materials:
1 cup of sawdust
1 cup of flour
1/2 cup of liquid starch
I had to go into the office this afternoon, so Chris was in charge. When I came home I found what looked like oatmeal in the shape of animals. They used cookie cutters to shape the Woody Dough. In two to three days it should harden. At that point sandpaper is used to finish the shapes. I'll keep you posted on the results of this experiment.

How fun is that?! I bet they had a blast making their animals. My kids always used to love doing science experiments at home. Thanks for the sweet comments you made on my blog. And, by the way, you were right, there was already another girl in the wings that he took to church on Sunday! Such craziness!:)
First, thanks for the sweet comment on my blog! I truly cherish encouragement in this time in our lives, but most especially from those who know EXACTLY what we're going through. We have a very special friend in common, don't we? Corrie is one of my favorite people! I wanted to also say I grew up in the Presbyterian church and it will always be in my heart. It is where I was taught and nurtured about Jesus and his love for me. I pray it is a place your boys will learn the same! I'm so happy you have found your fit, your niche.
