SPRING????

This is what we woke up to on March 21st - the first day of Spring. Last week we had some beautiful days of 65 degree weather. I had walked around the Botanic Garden amazed at how tulip and daffodil bulbs can emerge in the Spring after being covered with piles of snow for months and months. That is such a miracle! The snow should melt in the next few days - you never know what to expect in Chicago!

Pinewood Derby #2 - Nathan designed his car to look like a bobsled in honor of the Olympics. Don't you love his use of weights?

Rachel's excitement of the week was making Wind Ensemble, the top band in the high school. Congrats! Megan is counting down til Thursday when her cast comes off. Lauren's heart biopsy from a few weeks ago was excellent, she took the ACT without studying and earned a 31. She also was inducted into the National Honor Society. They all are counting down the days until Spring Break next week.
