getting ready for big day in city

Today we are cleaning and preparing food to get ready to go to Tucson (130 miles away) to go to Jazz's swim meet and do some shopping. We took breaks to play Go Fish and play with chickens and harvest more squash.

Jazz's reading skills are increasing and today she read to me and to grandma from Little Pear (a cute book about a boy in rural China at turn of century). When she figures out a more difficult word on her own she gets so excited she squeals and kisses me over and over. It is so fun to participate in this sheer joy of learning that could never happen within the school system.
