I went and helped the kindergartners with their art literacy project today. For the month of May, the whole school is learning about Lois Mailou Jones. This project focused on warm and cool colors.

The boys are making cards for their grandmas for Mother’s Day.

I went and volunteered in Colm’s classroom today. They have been working on these flowers for their kindergarden for quite a while. I helped them paint the stems. I am fairly certain I will have green paint stains on my hands, fingers and fingernails for at least the next week.

Colm loves watermelon and I have been telling him that watermelon season is coming soon. Last weekend the watermelons seemed to be looking pretty decent so I picked one up at the grocery store. I cut one up for lunch this week and was surprised to find that I had picked up a yellow watermelon. I didn’t even know they came in yellow…apparently they do.

It’s amazing what you can find when you move. I have had these cute little bowls for at least 2 1/2 years and I have never used them. I love their colors and I think I might go this route for the new dishes I am going to be getting soon. They are fun and festive and they would look great in our kitchen. Now I just have to to actually find dishes that are these colors.
