Fires, Watermelons, and Flowers

It has been a busy week at school. We have been studying about "solids, wiquids, and gases." Yesterday we made a Heart Potion. Heart Potions are cool. First, you need blue and red Koolaid, which you need to make and then freeze into ice. You also need straws, cups, and a coke. Put the ice in the glass cup (I chose red) and then slowly pour the coke in. The bubbles turn pink. It makes pinky bubbles. Pink gas, really.

We also painted with straws. You were suppose to blow through the straw to make neat designs. When it was my turn, I put the straw in my mouth and took a big breath so I would have pretty paint, but I ended up sucking the paint in through the straw instead. YUCK! I spit it out. It tasted like paint.

The next thing we learned about is the heart. The heart has 4 chambers, vessel spouts with lots of blood coming out, and it pumps. My heart is about as big as my fist. A great and powerful doctor did the first open heart surgery (Daniel Hale Williams). He was the greatest doctor, but he died.

Other things:

1. Mom is going to write on my birth certificate pillow with stain forever light blue (Mom calls this a permanent marker).

2. My favorite smells are fires, watermelons, and flowers.

Happy Valentine's Day.
