Day 128

Happy Mother's Day to all of you!!!

We are practicing for the science experiment Cameron has to do tomorrow in class. Each kid take a turn doing an experiment for the class and explaining how/why it works. She will attempt to explain how the photons in sunlight are refracted through a magnifying glass to produce enough heat to burn a leaf. She's been practicing her little speech and burning as many leaves as she can.





I totally got the blown out effect on this one. I couldn't read my meter because I'd looked at that concentrated light on the leaf. I was seeing little yellow spots instead!!! But, you get the idea.


I also wanted to include the photo of the day our precious Cameron came into the world. I am so grateful to be her mother.
