the sun has spent the day behind grey clouds.  the wind is blowing cold air.  another crap day for spring break.  but the girl has made good use of the weather.  she's reading the classics illustrated version of treasure island.  so is J, and just let me tell you, he is not at all impressed that she has gotten further in the book.  since friday afternoon, she has sped through Beverly Cleary's 'Socks', Heidi (CI) and now 1/2 of Treasure Island (CI).  she just loves to read.  which is really a wonderful thing...except when i go up to check on them before heading to bed at 10:45 and find her, not sleeping in her bed, but all comfied out in her closet with the door shut (so i wouldn't notice the light), so engrossed that it took her a good 5 seconds before she even realized i'd opened the door.  really, i'm glad she's a bookworm, but the girl needs to sleep!

oh, and yesterday's secret project:
  looks cute, right!?
