We opened the time capsules this afternoon on a special 'last day of homeschool' trip to the splashpark!!! Our friend Darren joined us and brought us ice creams to help us celebrate!! Then he helped us use the strings in the time capsules to measure Abby and Sam to see if they had grown.....but the strings were the same size as Abby and Sam so it didn't seem as if they had grown at all..so we aren't sure if the string was too stretchy or if they really hadn't grown!! Sigh....
BUT...Sam has gained 5lbs and Abby has gained 9lbs since September 11th. Both their hands have grown!! Most of their favourite things have stayed the same!! They both found a Toonie in their time capsule ;)
