Friendship, Live, Love

For the third year, Mrs. Diaz's class has made a stepping stone for the garden.  At the final morning meeting on the last day of school, the children brainstormed words to describe their fourth grade experience.  Then, they voted on three words to encapsulate the year.  Mrs. Diaz used stamps to press the words into cement, and then each child chose a marble or stone to complete the design.  Friendship. Live. Love!

From Here to There

Here, I'll post some flowers in the Panther Patch that have not yet bloomed and a photo of them fully unfurled.  How close will the actual flower be to the image posted?


Asters in the Patch
