TAKE 2!!

by Karmen |

Cowboy Dan says
“it’s better to have it
and not need it
than need it 
and not have it”
not sure if that became part
of his code 
during his quest to become
an Eagle Scout
or if it’s another quote
from Lonesome Dove
none the less
this time 
I 
AM
PREPARED..
we are heading back to the beach
TAKE 2!!!
(See earlier post archived in June-“Detour” 
for our 1st attempt to get to the beach this year)
 for this trip
this momma
has her bag of tricks 
READY Freddy! 

Books…always
Counting pegs to share
Magnetic letters
Sight words, alphabet flashcards and DVD learning set
Finger puppets for Mighty Mouse
Magnetic pattern blocks
and last but not least
 my visual aid attempt 
to ease
the all too familiar
insistent, continual, monotonous, repeated question

“ARE WE THERE YET?”











our plan:
 to tie the string 
from head rest to head rest
with the 
“Are we there yet?” 
on the driver side 
and the “YES!” 
on the passenger side
and to move the car (I have a clothespin hot glued to the back)
along the string periodically
so the rascals can SEE 
that we are moving
and that each moment we are closer than we were…
I will let you know how it works!…
until then 
night. night.
:O)k
