{Daily Moments} Baby Owls

Today was the kind of school day where Landon had barely made it to the end of his lesson when you could see the wheels turning in his head and he was starting to become the owl that we read about. As soon as the last sentence was read, he was off and building an owls nest with Ethan close on his heels. They built, fought, compromised and came up with a nest design that they were both happy with and proceeded to play out hatching as eggs, growing up, learning to fly and puffing up their wings to make predators think they were bigger and fiercer than they were. Once they were all played out, we continued our other subjects with the promise that when our school day was over, we'd go back and re-read the book on baby horned owls a second time.
