Yesterday was the Autumn Equinox and The Very bright Harvest moon. While it was not very cool there was a nice breeze during the day. We started the morning out with baked oatmeal that I made the night before. I decided to make two batches since the boys eat them up. I decided to make one into a pie and the other in cupcakes.Breakfast was followed by our morning circle time and the boys were thrilled we added "My Paddle" after we did "Sally Go Round the Sun". Before nap we read The Dutchess of Autumn. Kai remembered practically the entire story from telling it last year. After a nice warm fall time theme dinner ( black beans and squash) we went for a full moon walk and Kai decided to do some "groucho marx" walking with me.
I just love the Dutchess Kai made today the swirls in her name, the blue spirals for wind and the leaves falling.
Today we decided to skip circle and head to the park. However, we had to head to the feed store first to pick up the loose hay they give us for free and thankfully the Stall Dry I ordered came in . We had a really nice picnic lunch under a bottle brush tree near the edge of the water while the Muscovy mom, her babies and 3 Pekins joined us.
