Stained Glass Windows

Ange came over with her kids today.  Bubs was helping Matt and Sam move.  It was nice to have Ange here.  I really liked that a lot.  Bubs came back around 8:00 and gave Ange back the van.  He stayed and helped Matt and Sam awhile longer.  Matt and Sam slept here tonight. When Sam came we were surprised to see her.  She said, "Did Matt call you?"  Whoops.  He did, but I was at the store and didn't remember to return his call.  It was no problem though.  The sheets were clean in the guest room and everything was set up for them.  Sam put Anne to sleep and then went back to help with the moving.

Jorja had a visual project due tomorrow.  It was a summer project but there was no instructions, so she wasn't sure what she should do.  We asked her teacher about it at Back to School night.  Her teacher said she gave them a list of ideas.  Jorja said she didn't get the list.  The teacher grabbed the packet to look at it and discovered that she didn't put it in there.  Jorja's been really worried about this.  We haven't had time to help her because we have been busy playing with John and Cassie.  As a result we ended up helping her tonight.  Jorja would have taken care of this herself, no problem, if she had any idea what she was supposed to do.  Anyway, Jorja read the book Dragon Slippers.  One of the dragons loved to collect stained glass windows.  Jorja made a shoe box to look like a cave.  We helped her get crayon shavings and melt them to look like stain glass windows.  She put them inside along with a toy dragon. I'm glad she was able to pull something off!  I think it turned out great.
