Today my 3 year old and I made a pope hand puppet (who apparently *needed* and angry bird puppet as a pet...).

DD11 is making an awesome lapbook (courtesy Shower of Roses blog spot!) about the conclave, past popes, pope benedict, etc. It's coming along beautifully and will be finished around Wednesday.

I also wanted to share a great interactive site that explains the process to children (and adults!):

I believe in the benefit of organized after school activities and nosy, involved parents. I believe in spoiling my children. I believe that I have seen the village and I do not want it anywhere near my children. Now for the controversial stuff: we have traditional gender roles, we're Catholic, I'm Libertarian, he's Republican, we're both conservative, and we own guns (now there's no need to ask, lol). Aimee
