Today the children and I were studying USDA dairy recommendations for over 65's in our home school program. So exciting! D'Artagnan came up with a wonderful idea for craft time. Our neighbours had just bought a new truck in a dreary shade of slate grey and D'Artagnan thought it would be kind and neighbourly if we would paint it like a cow. Bertie painted the black spots (isn't he clever?) and Nigel sang the Rachmaninoff Concerto 3 by Bach to cheer us on our work. The children were so industrious that we finished before our neighbor got back from work. She was so surprised! But look how happy she looks (I think).
