<thinks about making pretty butterflies with the kiddiewinks using coffee filters and watercolour paints>

<chuckles at some of the questions the kiddies asked about farming - what came first - the chicken or the lamb? (crossed wires there) and then, do pigs play a little sport (haven't a clue where that came from), do pigs live in China? (?), how do pigs get curley tails?, do pigs get sunburn?, how are fields made?>

<really likes this class, they are fab>
