Blake

To see a world in a grain of sand, And a heaven in a wild flower, Hold infinity in the palm of your hand, And eternity in an hour. William Blake, from "Auguries of Innocence"

Teamwork!

Dear Daughter,

Well, it took many hours of patience and teamwork over the course of three days after school, but we finally did it! We built the Eiffel Tower, and we thought that Big Ben was "big"!





I am so proud of how you helped Papa, or perhaps how Papa helped you to work on this project that was not easy and took a lot of patience. Both of us got a little frustrated at times and we had to stop for the day, or we had to figure out a different approach to make it work, but in the end, it was 100% teamwork that got us there.

On to the next piece of World Architecture, I wonder what it will be??

I Love you!
Papa

Picnic in the Park

Dear Daughter,

Yesterday we had a picnic in the park and then you got to play in the big playground.

These are moments that Papa cherishes beyond belief, and I hope that they will be memories that you have when you are older.

It was your idea, and I realized how long it had been since we had been to the park because of the bad weather all winter, so it was perfect.

Thank you for reminding Papa that we need to go to the park, and to enjoy every nice day that we have, so that when the weather is bad, we can at least have the memories of the good days.

I Love You,

Papa
