sing like wildflowers

My full and kooky life as a homeschooling mommy to 2 great kids, raising a child with HLHS (Hypolastic Left Heart Syndrome), coping with depression, following Jesus, and being much too camera happy.

    Interesting! Rocks or maybe fossils? Interesting up close versus seeing it at a distance.

      We saw these rocks on a tidepool field trip. These are living clams that burrow homes in rocks. And the holes in rocks are from clams who did that and moved on. That place Elliot is standing on would be covered with water when the tide is high.
      We saw sea creatures and deeper part of ocean floor that you do not usually see. I was walking around, with a bad knee which I didn’t know was bad, and crunching on sea anemones covered with shells.
      I wish I remembered more of what the teacher explained…

        That is interesting about the clams that burrow in the rocks. I’ve seen the ocean but really don’t know a lot about sea creatures, although I did go snorkeling when I visited friends of the family in Puerto Rico many years ago. I can’t swim but we went in a lagoon and could see all the tiny fish swimming around – it was very exciting!

        Snorkeling in Puerto Rico sounds lovely! I’m not a swimmer either, but I also went snorkeling in Hawaii on my honeymoon. I jumped into the ocean screaming and laughing with my life jacket on. So crazy. I would be less enthusiastic to do that now.
        I wasn’t into sea creatures until a few years ago. Taking Elliot to the aquarium when he was a year old got me more interested than him. There’s just so much variety and interesting features about them that makes me appreciate all their little details. God’s humor and endless creativity is seen through them.
        I hope you get to visit an aquarium in your city! They make it very entertaining and interactive. Tell me which one you like the most!
