Dinosaurs......

Dinosaurs have been the subject in our house lately; How did they become extinct?, Why did God make something he knew would be extinct?, Were they on the ark?, How old is the world?, and then the normal what they ate? What they looked like?. We took a trip to the Seattle Science Center with Madison's Kindergarten class at the beginning of the month. (see earlier blog) Grandy went through her toys and books and brought the girls a box of different kinds of Dinosaurs and a few books. The girls love this box and have played house and dolls with the dinosaurs. They remind me everyday how much their beloved cousin Hunter loves dinosaurs. They have yet to watch the movie "The Land Before Time", as we do not own it and I do not know anyone who does. Madison is also learning about them in school this month. In class they have a "pet" dinosaur "Sarah" and a dinosaur journal. Each day one of the students gets to take the journal and "Sarah" home for the night. Each child gets to draw a picture and answer a question. These questions included "How would you brush a dinosaurs teeth". It is very cute. Yesterday was finally the day we got to bring "Sarah" home and the journal. Madison's question was "How would you bring dinosaurs back to earth?". Madison's answer "I would bring dinosaurs back with my magic wand. I would make them small so they could fit in the kitty's house. I would play with them and then make them big". She drew a picture of herself holding a wand and Emma and Mommy were standing next to her. We had to take Sarah back today, but had to get one last picture for memory sake.
