I recently found this website, and boy am i glad I did :)

Lots of stories for kids, & definitely a favorite of the boys!

That's not the GREAT part though. The more books you read, the more books the organization shares with children who need them! Check out the website for more info on how it works :)

Such and awesome site, and i hope you enjoy it!

We live in a condo, on the fourth floor..not much room for a backyard garden oasis. However with a little thinking we came up with something close enough for now :)

Orange and Yellow Magnolias, Purple and Violet Torenias, a Money Tree (Pachira) and a Pothos. We also made a little pond using a clear 15 gallon bin and a filter. To the pond we added some river stones, a sea biscuit (which has been removed), and a castle. In this picture you can see the Orange Oranda swimming around...Lee has named him "fatman".

The Koi is pretty shy and hides in the castle...

so i moved it to get a picture of him :)

Play Dough & Dinosaurs...a combination any boy (or girl!) will love!

This kept Lee and little brother entertained for about an hour, then of course, everything ended up on the floor :)

Lee enjoyed making different dino prints in the playdough and little brother enjoyed picking off any playdough stuck to the rocks!
