The Latest

I haven't been taking many pictures lately and need to get back to it! Right now Grant is really into astronomy. Nate took him out one day when I was sick and let him watch the Galileo Baby Einstein video in the car. I hadn't played those videos for him in a long time since I thought he was too old for them. How wrong I was! Grant LOVED the video and wanted to see more "Earf" (earth). From the video he learned about Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, the moon, space, and galaxies. He's so excited about it and wants to talk about it all the time. This weekend we went to Barnes and Noble and picked out a DK book on space. It's been really educational for Nate and me as well as Grant. I was reading to him tonight and turned the page and was wondering what it was about. Grant said, "Galaxies!" and was, of course, right. It's really fun to see him so excited about things lately and to get to hear his reactions. Nate showed him a video the other night about space and he said, "Wow, amazing Mama." It truly is amazing to learn about God's creation all over again, this time through fresh eyes.

How fun! I'm so glad we got him the telescope instead of the microscope for Christmas. Sead called that one. :-) Sead loves astronomy too!
