Friday Fragments: Quotes and Isms Edition
Fragment 1: Puppyism
Puppy likes Ramen soup. So much so, she sometimes asks for it for breakfast. Puppy pronounces ramen, robin. She pronounces thanks, hanks. So I didn't really think that she thought they put robin in the soup. This week Amy described this conversation she had with Puppy.
Puppy: Mommy can I have Robin soup for breakfast?
Amy: Sure. It's ramen soup not robin soup.
Puppy: Ohhhh. (After some thought ) I guess if they put robin in it, it would be more like a stew.
Fragment 2: Dad or Grandpaism
In The past few weeks two of our families favorite actors have passed away. First Andy Griffith and then Ernest Borgnine. We generally turn our t.v. off for the summer, but when we heard of Andy Griffith's death we turned the t.v back on and watched a couple episodes from the Andy Griffith show as a tribute. The next week when we heard of Ernest Borgnines death, we turned on the television once again to watch him in the film Marty.
The next day I was at my folk's house explaining the above to my Mom. My Dad walked in the room and said "don't watch anything with me in it this week."
Fragment 3: Quote
"If Christians would run more programs like Safe Families, DCFS would be put out of business. " -the director of the Illinois Department of Family and Child Services to Dr. David Anderson Executive director of Lydia Homes and creator of the Safe families program.

JJ Heller - Boat Song (Official Music Video)
OPV
Other People's Videos
We are big J.J. Heller fans. We saw her in concert earlier this year. More on that concert can be found at HSD by clicking here. So I thought her boat song, which is based on Margaret Wise Brown's book the Runaway Bunny would be a good fit for this session of OPV.

How to make a paper airplane
I asked my son, Spider Droid to share some of the fine points of Paper Airplane making.
Here is some footage of him teaching his method to our family
Spider Droid turned the camera on me and walked me again through the process
I have shared this post with the Carnival of Homeschooling which will be hosted this week at Why Homeschool. I will put up the link here on Tuesday.
I guess there's nothing more to say except the closing.
