Here is a collection of Preston's Writing Workshop pieces.  As you can see...they were working on labeling pictures :)

 Me and my dad played football (dad, football, me) ( I just love the "air" coming off the football from the pass!)

 Mommy, scooter, Landry, Nessa, Me (apparently we all ride the scooter together! :)

 Computer

 I was on a bike ride. Me bike trailer, Mommy, bike

Nessa has been an "animal whisper-er" for some time now, but now she has expanded to insects/bugs! Last week she collected 3 caterpillars. We caught them, enjoyed them and then let them go (it was a terribly sad event :( ("Mommy, how could you make me let them go into the wild without protection?  I just love them so much. I'm terribly sad" Yep, that's what I deal with on a daily basis. 

Then, one afternoon, Nessa was playing with "Hunter" (see below). He bit her, she threw him and lost him. Mommy and Nessa were on hands and knees for 45 min as Hunter's only search party.  We were unsuccessful...but the follwoing day, Hunter returned! Yay! :)  Preston calls Hunter a bully because he bites...I'd have to agree! Later in the week you'll see pictures of Nessa's other caterpillar-Fuzzy Balls. Yep, that's right, Fuzzy Balls! Well, FB (for short..and because I can't say the name without laughing!) would get let go every night before bed and the next day we would ALWAYS find him. FB and Nessa are buddies! So over the next few weeks, you'll see many pictures of FB-the returning caterpillar!
