In May it seemed like I had a million things to write about that I didn't want to forget. For some reason, I must have been a better blogger about June activities because I only had three things that I couldn't "categorize" elsewhere.
1. One day when we got home from church (you can see Lily took the clips out of her hair when she was bored on the car ride home) little girl came upstairs found my pyrex pan holder we used from the "linger longer" activity, and when we took the plate out to clean it, she snatched it and filled it up. First she took it upstairs and put some of her big girl panties inside. Next she went into her playroom and filled it to the brim with toys (especially figurines) and whatever space was left over she fit snacks into the crevices. When we asked her what she was doing, she replied with, "I'm packing. I'm going to go visit Babcia in Poland." "Great," we said. And then we laughed with what she thought was important to go on a trip: underwear, toys, and snacks. She sure has her priorities straight.
2. A fast movement caught my eye one afternoon. I thought it was a lost dog, or maybe a stray cat - so I went outside to investigate. Upon coming closer to a neighbors house I realized that I had no idea what this creature was, but it made itself comfortable on the porch for over an hour. Curiosity killed my cat, and I researched what this mysterious animal was. Mostly, I just wanted to make sure it didn't come anywhere near us, and that if it did - it wasn't harmful. It ended up being a woodchuck (otherwise known as a groundhog, whistle pig, marmot, grass rat, and earth pig). The only concern about having one close by is that it can really dig up your yard and create huge pockets of holes that could be costly to repair. It is my first time ever running into one of these and now I feel so educated that I know what it is!
