Jurassic Playground

Yippee! The webserver is up, so images are back. My precious one found the network card after some diligent digging among the boxes. I have refrained from going in there to see in what state he left the stuff - for the moment I am too happy that everything is set up to worry about things like that.

At child care, Angel Face's class was about to go on a "field trip." They were to go and find the kinds of food that dinosaurs ate, because "although dinosaurs are no longer around, the stuff they ate are still here."
The kids were asked what they thought these prehistoric animals ate, and some suggested birds and small animals. Angel Face became quite upset, insisting that dinosaurs must have been vegetarian, and so off went the entire class to the garden outside to find some leaves that they might have eaten.
Life seems so much simpler when you are four, doesn't it?
Unfortunately, reality will hold a few nasty surprises for her. Not that she won't have a few surprises of her own: where have you heard of a four year-old convincing an entire class, with most of the kids at least a year older?

Congratulations on the move -- I know that's somewhat premature, but with additional cleaning and unpacking ahead of you, you probably need encouragement. My limited understanding of the dinosaurs would suggest that Angel Face was right; many of them were strictly vegetarian and seemingly peaceful creatures. I'd guess that the carniverous ones attract more than their share of attention, especially from boys like my youngest. ;)
