Crazy seasons, crazy allergies

 Charlie drew a picture of Danny getting a scraped "strawberry" knee (this didn't actually happen). In the picture, Danny is crying, yelling for Daddy, and his blood is filling the whole pool. Paul is there for support. (Charlie got a strawberry knee a few weeks ago and has been pretty preoccupied by it.)
 Charlie arrested himself. And his shirt's on backwards.
 Happy kid!
 I told the girls I was planning to go minimalist with my hair and makeup that day. They said I looked creepy.
 Fine, girls!
 Charlie drew pictures of all these crazy animals from the book "What Makes a Monster?". This wolverine frog, when threatened, breaks the bones in its hand to create sharp "bone claws" that shoot out through its skin! Charlie is pictured with it, mouth wide open:)
 The aye-aye has witch-like claws and sharp teeth. Charlie and Danny pose as roly-polies on the run!
 Humbolt squid. It has 3 hearts and a razor-sharp beak.
 The goblin shark thrusts out its jaws and sucks up prey like a vacuum.
 Prairie dog fleas can give you the black plague.
 Tyrant leech kings attach inside your nose!
 The deathstalker scorpion is one of the deadliest in the world.
 Vampire bats have sharp teeth, and lap up blood like a cat.
 The Portuguese man-of-war is loaded with venom.
 Cordyceps fungus (also called zombie ant fungus) takes over an insect's brain, forces it to crawl to the end of a branch, then the insect dies and the fungus bursts through its head, ready to grow new spores.
 The honey badger is one of the world's most fearless creatures, picking fights with lions, hyenas, and porcupines.
 Cute Danny at church last Sunday.
 Grace as George Ellery Hale, astronomer.
All set up for my interview with George.
