Lexie likes to help in the yard. She helped to scoop dirt to put into the pot and then she carefully placed our sunflower sprouts into the dirt.
Lexie patted the dirt down. She takes her gardening very seriously.
We decided to plant more seeds. We love that they sprout in about 5 days. Lexie checks on them everyday.
Lexie counted the seeds as she pushed each one into the dirt.
We had butterflies at school. There was one chrysallis left and I didn't want to have the butterfly stuck in the jar over the weekend, so I brought it home for Lexie. She was so excited when the butterfly finally came out.
She got to hold the butterfly for a few seconds before it flew away.
"We miss you"!!! ...as quoted by Tyler to Miss Lexi :)
