The scorekeeper.
The scorebook.
The cheerleader and the racers & the finish line. This had been going on for sometime before I came home this afternoon and I still watched about 15 *races*.

Daddy took the oldest three fishing again this morning. They together caught 5 fish, not as great as last time, but not skunked nonetheless. I was so proud. Before Daddy even told the boys they were ripping out their picket knives and cutting the heads off the fish and gutting them! They did a mighty fine job I must say.
Daniel is intrigued by touching/feeling examining things, that is how he learns best. He MUST touch, take apart, put together, take apart, put together, take apart...an experiment type of kid. Remember he is the one who was found electrocuting flies on the window with two bare wires? He is also the son I will find half inside the dishwasher spinning, turning, rolling every moving part to see how it works. Really, give him an old toaster and a screwdriver and he will be happy for hours. After the fish were gutted and in the fridge he came in the house and asked if he could *play* with a fish. "Play?" I asked, "Yes, mamma, i want to hold it and play with it." "Sure, go wash your hands." he did and I plopped a slimy fish in his hands. He flexed every fin, looked closely and ran his fingers all over the fish, scrapped the scales off ect. I think we have to go to the library now.

Jacob just came up stairs with an all new design in fashion. He calls it his "burrbelt". A chic new style of belt marketed to them country types. Made of 100% burrs found in yer backyard and assembled around yer belly. When yer done and yous want some entertainment, put them on yer cats tail.
