Birches Haikus!

Proud Birches
Flaring sky shines bright
Birch trees stand tall and stately
Noisy wind whistles 
By Jack 

Fiery Sky
A lone birch stands straight!
Against a fiery sky
As the moon rises 
By Carter 

Twilight
Ice-cold wintry eve
Three birches stand silently
In cold, crackling snow. 
By Nora

The Lone Birch
The birch is alone
Oh, what is that howling?
Just a lonely coyote.
By Eli 

Goodnight Birch 
Flaring sun sets on
Rolling hills as the wind roars
At the trees, Goodnight!
By Eliot

Sunrise Appears! 
Winter snow shines bright
Fiery morning daylight
Sunrise appears now! 
By Paige 

When Dawn Breaks
Dawn breaks through early morn
Birches stand proud, strong, and lean.
Crisp, white, crunchy snow.
By Naomi

Remember When? Chicken Flashback!!!

Remember the Favorite Chicken Farm Field Trip?



Chickens revived - on a cold February morning!
First a chicken greeting!  Looks like 
there might be a mad chicken in the midst!
 
Then they got to slice and eat hard boiled eggs 
straight from those favorite chickens!  Yum!

Engineer of the Week - Paige!

Paige shared many cute items from her baby and preschool 
days.  One favorite was her very soft stuffed bear wearing a 
very soft bunny costume.  Another fun share was the photo
of her eating (or should we say plastering) spaghetti on her
head, sauce and all!


We read one of Paige's favorite books,
a classic Dr. Seuss
Green Eggs and Ham!

Paige's lunch guest, Mom!
