Yesterday I hopped into the classroom and came face to face with a very cute frog! Naomi, one of my students, left a Valentine’s surprise on my table…a frog balloon with candy and a frog notebook tucked into a cute little bucket decorated with, yes, another frog! As you can see by the picture, I [...]
This weekend I took another walk with my friend Debbie. As you can see by the picture, somebody else joined us too. Okay, two of them joined us…Polly #2 & Polly #3! We went to Williamsport, Maryland and walked on the C&O Canal for 2 1/2 hours! There was snow on the ground, the sky [...]
Have you been to Poor House Farm yet? If not, ask mom and dad to take you. You will love it there! You can play on the playground, run around on the fields, feed the ducks and geese in the pond, take hikes on the paths through the woods, and in the spring you can [...]

When I was in Spain this past summer, I taught conversational English for a program called Pueblo Ingles. This means that Sofia, pictured here, speaks Spanish as her native language and she is learning to speak English. One day we decided to take a walk and work on her English as we trekked through the [...]
If you haven’t been to Orr’s Farm Market in Martinsburg, WV, then you’re missing out on something truly special. The market is top notch, but the drive out there is what makes the trip exciting for me. Situated between acres of peach and apple trees is a large open field that holds a herd of [...]
I can’t believe that Polly is “eyeballing” MY waffle. Do you think she wants a bite? Do frogs even like waffles? I think I need to protect my waffle, because after she takes one bite she will probably ask for another, and another, AND another! What shall I do? What would you do if a [...]
Polly #3 really enjoyed the snow over Christmas break. She made the most of it by being outside as much as possible. Can you believe that we found a sled that is the perfect size for her? She had lots of fun sledding down the big hills in our yard. Well, they were really just [...]
