4/22/21 Last week's art project in Mrs. G.'s kindergarten class. I love the projects she has the kids do. Yesterday they made dandelion playdough. Each child had to pick 20 dandelions, then they put them all in a big bucket with hot water and added vegetable oil, flour, and salt. Three friends mixed it with their hands, then other friends came with scoops to distribute it. Some even came home -- in a gross little ziploc we found in our little friend's backpack, totally unidentifiable. We'd clearly missed the memo (on the Seesaw online school program).

Talk about whatever else is on your mind today.
Two friends lost close relatives and COVID made the death's hard. The 51 year -old sister of a close friend of my husband, who lives in Israel, died suddenly of a heart attack. Due to the need to have a negative COVID test before entering the US he couldn't make it to the funeral. He came back to the US to be with his family for a few days after her death. My friend's 90+ mother died nearby. The friend and her husband had moved to Arizona a couple of years ago. She got the call her mother was failing. Her husband has several serious chronic conditions so I think the flying would have been risky in terms of COVID. HE didn't come. She was able to get to see her mother before she passed away.
