and watched as water (that mommy didn't put in there nearly early enough) as it traveled through lettuce.

watched beans sprout.

and had some fun lunches :)

our next Bible story was Moses and the 10 (X) Commandments!

nothing, i repeat, nothing, begins with X.

X cereal, it is!

X potato stamping

we practice flashcards every day.

this kid loves him some flash cards.

we also did a special Lenten study and he got to put jewels on his crown every day while I read a Bible verse and poem!  just a few more weeks and we can add the big cross on top on Easter morning!

and, as always, practicing our tracing...

March!
