Bears

Here are a few pictures Madison took tonight on the way to taekwondo, just some interesting pictures of the nice sunset we had tonight.  It's Taco Tuesday, and so there were tacos.  We lined up the taco trucks and had a Mexican feast together before heading off to watch Madison kick people.  She's getting good with that, but is merciful to the less experienced.  Those who are too aggressive get a kick to the head!

Today she had a lab where she was checking to see if various liquids were either basic or acidic.  Students were using pH strips on items like lemon juice, baking soda, and molten lava.  Okay, just kidding with that last one.  Just checking to see if you were paying attention.

After taekwondo tonight, we watched the movie "Bears," which is part of the "watching nature movies because Nana seems to do better with that" series.  It was actually a pretty good movie though!  I did spend most of it very tense and supremely worried for these two cubs that we followed along through the whole movie.  But the cinematography was incredible, and things worked out for everyone by the end, as if it were a Disney movie or something.  Mom had made us some delicious dessert, giving each of us a bowl of flan she made earlier.  It was really delicious!

Of course, by evening's end, Nana is still in her room muttering and crying in the dark, but at least we had a little bit of peace for a short time.

We said our prayers for her tonight.  After that, we read from Matthew, and from a new book too, one that takes place on the planet Batuu.  We'll be there on that planet for a while, although we haven't quite gotten to that part of the story yet.  We're meeting a new character named Vi Moradi, who we'll hopefully see in person some day.  We'll see as time goes on!
