First up, our November Harvest total was:
153 eggs
That's it.
Next, you may recall that I have tried for years to get Gyunay into some swimming lessons that will actually teach him to swim. Having one arm makes swimming more difficult, of course. So does having autism. Throw in the fact that he really only learns one-on-one, in a quiet environment, and well, it's taken me years of trial and error to get this poor kid swim lessons that may actual teach him to not drown.
For the first time in years, I finally have a promising option, and his first lesson was this week. It went better than any other lesson we've tried, and it was only his teacher and him in the pool. He had a huge smile on his face the whole time he was above water. Finally, we have hope that he may learn to swim!
In other news, Lydia's work is on display at her school's art gallery this week. She had to attend a reception and answer visitors' questions about her art. She was nervous, but it went really well.
She's particularly proud of her bowls, which were all made on the wheel.
Her platypus family was a hit, too. We really enjoyed seeing all the kids' displays, and the younger boys were really impressed by what can be done with clay. They love their pottery class, and they appreciated the skill involved.
