FIELD TRIP

Home Depot Kids Workshop: Poolside Bird House

Easter Egg Hunt at our church.

This week we our Cock-a-Tiel CoCo passed away from old age, the vet said she was healthy but due to her age we might get a couple more years with her. She was the best bird, which has been with me 18 years. CoCo was 21 years old when she passed away, she had a wonderful life and was very loved. We all miss her very much, our house is too quiet without her singing. Ever since we moved here we have lost a pet each year, 3 years of losing pets, it has been so hard and a very emotional time. I miss all our babies so much.

RIP Zeus, Larry Boy, and CoCo, we will always love and miss you.

CONCLUSION

Crazy that we only have 3 weeks left of school, time flies when you are having fun. This week we learned more about Australia, James Jimmy Carter, trouble in the Middle East, America enters a period of decline, terrorism, Hispanic movement, American Indian Movement, coping with New Realities, politics gets personal, Soviet Invasion, and missile against jet. Also read about coral reefs, coral bleaching, pole jumping, iron Earth, off-center poles, motor moments, and electrifying magnet. Been a fun week of learning and an emotional week after losing our bird CoCo to old age. Now looking unto next week to see what adventures are in store for us.

GOD BLESS!
