Ok here is a strange, funny poem from my Jeffrey
Want to Find My Cat
I want to find my cat
I want to find my cat
I looked in the laundry hamper,
hat and in the roast beef he
was not there so I looked at
the park in the slide under the slide
he was not there so I went home
and played a video game and
heard a voice say, "That is a cool game
can I try." I wheeled around and there
was my cat and I said, "Yes!!!"

Here are a few pictures of what we have been doing lately for the house in one way or another.
This is our school room. Jason did a great job building a wall to wall desk with matching shelves above it. It is awesome.
These three are just things I made from stuff I found at the Goodwill, the bottom one it what they looked like when I bought them.
This one is of our Jeffrey at the Pinewood Derby race. He won out of the Wolves in our pack and one 3rd out of, I believe 12 wolves. YEAH JEFFREY!!

This month my dad and Jason's mom came out to visit, they were kind enough to come out so we could go to Woodbadge. Here are some pics from when we went hiking with Kathy.

scouts
For six days Jason and I had a great opportunity to go to something called Woodbadge. It is a scout leadership training course. We did so much, the days speed bye and when I think about it somethings blend together. I had so much opportunities for growth during those 6 days. I got to do a skit, a song, a project and a flag ceremony in front of over 40 people. Out of 40 students there were 4 girls. So I felt a tad bit out of place in the beginning. The 40 of us were put into patrols of 5 people and those were the ones you got to spend the whole time with. That was interesting, especially if someone in that group doesn't mesh well with others. Jason and his bright ideas challenged all to a polar dip. I wasn't sure if I was going to do it but I have the patch to prove to myself that I did :) Here are some of the pictures from those 6 days.
This is Todd, he is holding the rocket that we made, this was the first one, the one that didn't go off. There is no failing in Woodbadge just trying until you succeed :)
Here is the OWL patrol, this is Jason's patrol :) They thought they were so cool. (they actually were but don't tell him I said so :)
There were students and staff. We were the students and we were thought of as 12-18 year old boys. This was all set around a troop. Just like in boyscouts. So we had dressing up, the staff mostly did that. We even had campfires with skits and songs.
The owl's rocket
This is where we were Camp Parson's. It was beautiful and full of Bald Eagles. It was amazing. They were flying all over, even babies. I couldn't believe it.

My boys. I just love this picture. All my boys dressed in their Sunday Best. I'm not sure what they are doing. This is one way that my Jason leads by example, one of his many ways :)Thursday, May 6, 2010
school
JeKids are so funny. They sometimes act like the don't understand what you mean and sometimes they actually think they don't understand or know how to do, whatever it is for them to do. (Did you happen to follow that :)
Jeffrey was given the assignment of writing a report. The first thing out of his mouth is "I can't" and "I don't understand." Usually I would explain but we had already went over some sample poems. So I told him to take it to his room and work on it. I was really impressed with what he came back with.
HOW A SNOW FLAKE FALLS
How snow flakes falls is
no mystery because when winter
comes they need to glide like the bird
and when they fall they shine
like diamonds in the sky.

SEA SHELLS IN THE WIND
Sea Shells in the wind
sea shells in the wind
The wind is like the sea's roaring,
waves are howling winds,
the ocean blue is the ghostly fog,
and the sea shells sinking to the ocean floor
are the birds gliding to the ground.
