One of the true highlights of 3rd grade is getting to take part in the wax museum!! Miss Kylie was all about researching and then portraying the one and only Florence Nightengale…
Kylie’s mom was all about channeling my inner-Julie Andrews channeling her inner Maria Von Trapp—while the skirt, apron, and cape came not from old/dowdy draperies, they did come from old and not-a-bit-dowdy sheets!! (Gramma Bev would be impressed with the resourceful re-use of aged and torn bedding. Kylie’s mom is continually impressed with Kylie’s good-sported nature…)
We heart progress in the basement, not to mention the lifetime supply of heavy duty buckets…
March, of course, equals snow…
Cael, the “super pre-school kid of the week” could not have been more thrilled with the weatherly turn of events—“Mom!! It’s not melted anymore!!”
MORE progress in the basement—HOORAY!! (Still waiting for Desi Jr. to show up with the projector that would fit right there in the ceiling, hmm, maybe??…)
And it is good for me to know that I am completely of super sound mind. I do know that my girl, Kylie, is 8 right now, and that on her birthday she will indeed be 9. I only got the first part of that thought on the calendar—it’s a good thing she straightened me out…

Super impressed with your wax museum accomplishemnts! Love reading your blog - I keep looking for Desi, Jr. around the neighborhood, wanting to direct him to the proper home in case he is lost . . .
I got a kick out of seeing the wax museum post! We have 3rd grade Wax Museum at our school, too. Jessica was Helen Keller at her wax museum and Alyssa was Margaret Houston (Sam Houston's wife) at her wax museum. I'll have to see if I can come up with pictures of theirs to send you!

Your basement look fantastick and almost done =0) So sorry to hear about the projector, it is a bummer indeed. Kylie you pulled off Florence like a champ and make us nurses very proud.
