Did you know that it takes about 8 gallons of maple sap to make this little amount of delicious maple syrup?
We boiled down a total of 20 gallons of sap to get 8 pints of syrup....I always wish we had more!!!Can you believe April is half over?
Crazy!
Here are some of the great books we read this week:

We seriously got into our book boxes this week.
The K kids read a book or two and record the title on their book log.
When their log is full (10 books) then they can choose a sticker from the special sticker pic box, plus they get a giant scented marker star on their paper!
Really they are excited about reading!!!!! Me too!!!!!
