Four of the six grands were here again on Wednesday – just a different combination. They played and played outside – it’s SO nice that the weather is a little cooler. Then they came inside and we did a science experiment. I’d read about this on line, and the supplies were pretty easy to come by. We mixed up these combinations of three different very specific clear liquids – a vitamin C tablet dissolved in warm water was one, and then combinations of hydrogen peroxide, iodine, starch, maybe a couple of other things. Then they poured them all together, and poured them back & forth between cups, and all of a sudden they turned a bright purple. They were SO excited – so was I. I just wish I had enough scientific knowledge to tell them exactly what was going on. Here is June mid pour, just before the purple appeared…
After lunch we ran June and Mason home, and Charlie & Adam went with us to pick up my new car. I am so excited! It drove great, and it has air conditioning. Woo hoo!
