Alexis was required to do a project after their class read “Trumpet of the Swan”. We (alexis, stephen, and i) all brainstormed and the swaniata won. You have to admit we are original! The teacher even said that she had never seen it before. We had a lot of fun making and creating this swan – I think Alexis’ popularity rose on the day the pianta was hit. Candy will do that to kids! I wonder if we will have the energy and creativity left to do this by the time child number 5 rolls into the fifth grade?
