We went to the Academy of Science today and had a really fun time. We started in this igloo house thing and learned about the arctic and then spent a lot of time downstairs in the aquarium part. We finally went to the planetarium and saw the latest movie in the dome. Ella was a little nervous – she held both of our hands during the film. I got a little freaked out because I started thinking about when the earth will not exist. It’s all too much to think about as far as I’m concerned. We stayed in tonight – before dinner I gave Ella her first piano lesson. I started teaching Juliet last week and Ella really wanted a lesson too. We planned hers for Friday but then she had a lot of plans with friends. Tonight, Ella asked for her lesson. She did a fantastic job. Ella was so focused and really seemed to understand what I was teaching her. Ella and her new Hannah Montana shades. Helping us take the recycling downstairs. Ella and mommy under water. Ella touching some starfish and sea urchins. Ella bumped into one of her classmates Rosie and they hung out in front of the big glass wall. Ella doing some tricks with her new orange furry friend. Ella’s first piano lesson.
What a fun-filled day! I love that you’re giving Ella piano lessons. Love you. Mom
