I apologize for neglecting our blog so much these days! Today we debuted a new hairstyle which warranted bringing out the camera. We are so proud of how our girl is growing up.
This spring she has discovered new aspects of nature to captivate her attention. First it was a VERY large earthworm which lived in some dirt in a jar for several days. That was followed by a baby turtle which was snagged on a Kentucky River kayaking trip (who was conveniently fed the giant earthworm). The only 'home' we could provide Ziggy the turtle was last summer's hermit crab container -- which seemed too small for the little guy. Mommy couldn't bear the thought of sentencing an innocent turtle to a shortened lifespan so after just two nights he was released back into his natural habbitat.
Now Ellie is fascinated with a nest outside the kitchen window housing two beautifully blue robin's eggs. Frequently throughout each day she will request we check to see if the birdies are hatching. We caution her that too much attention might scare the momma bird away!
