What do you do...

... When there's smoke outside?

The smoke from the fires is just horrible. And the boys have a cough, so I don't even want to venture out to prolong that.

We stay inside. We have been reading books, making a fort (kisses and tickles in the fort), watching YouTube: soccer, cats & kittens, trains (of course), garbage men, different musical instruments and listening to Debussy.

Cedrik has been interested in his reading lessons, so we've taken that up again. I try to stop when he's having fun so that he'll want to continue the next day. He practices writing his name (on his own) most days. He's getting much better at sharing his artwork with Jordan and we've all been singing a lot to each other.

We were planning to go camping this weekend, but with coughing boys, Jordan has a sore throat and the fact that our campsite was 5 miles away from the fires, we thought we should stay home instead. The smoke isn't supposed to be gone until the end of July! What will we do!? Escape to Utah?
