The Queen Bee

While the big kids were enjoying a day at the school house, J5 and I took off for home where we had a nice morning together doing some Reading Made Easy and playing games. His reading lesson (I should say lessons because he is just blowing through them since he can read it all so far) had a story about a queen bee and her work bees. After we ate lunch, I took him to our local science center for a bit of fun and you'll never guess what we saw! Bees! (pardon the phone pics)

J5 checks for the queen bee. Where could she be?

Terrible phone picture of the hive- we went again yesterday between dr's appts and the other side has a lot more bees!

And finally the perfect sentence to follow up on our lesson.

We had such a fun time together. I love being a member here because if we have to wait things out in town (and it's not cold and flu season!), I can just drop in for a while and have some fun with the kids.
