Right after I took this photo she exclaimed "Maybe when I grow up, I will be a scientist!" Music to my ears!
And her love of crystals just made learning about liquids vs. solids that much more fun. Love our little Cyclops magnifier with camera.
And Katie Mei is not too far behind her. On Tuesday morning Katie Mei ate an apple for a snack, and then asked me why apples have seeds. Perfect segue, my dear! We were going to start our seed planting project, and you made my introduction so very easy.

I remember when she told me she wanted to be a doctor. She's going to do something with science. Just look at the joy on her face!!!
So do you do history one semester and science the other? I need to figure out something because I never can figure out how to do both in the same day (or sometimes even in the same week).
Yes, Cristi, I have to keep them separate. I don't have enough patience, and Merrilee doesn't have the endurance for us to do both each week. We have been using A Beka history, but will switch to The Story of the World series next fall. For science we are using Christian Liberty Press (last year we used Apologia), and I'm not so happy with that either. CLP is just so ho-hum, and the elementary levels of Apologia are too topic-specific for me. (We did a whole year on astronomy last year and I was really sick of it after a few months). I'm looking for a new science approach. This year I'm doing a lot of experiments out of other books, as well as using websites. I'll take any science advice you have to offer.
