Gabe teaches Max to count, earns extra dollar!


Today Gabe made a box for his Valentine's Day party.



Here is the finished product!



Max (victim of facial stretch from camera lens) was being uncharacteristically patient this afternoon.



He looooves blueberries ... and toy cars and trucks!



Gabe managed to keep him entertained for a record amount of time while I cooked!  Here he is, pulling up images of trucks for Max on search engines (one of Max's favorite activities).



Teaching Max how to draw things on the mural wall ...



He also played hide and seek with him, played with pillows on the bed, and made a video of the two of them. They played so well that today, for the first time ever, Gabe earned an extra dollar!  (He starts each homeschool day with $3 and usually just tries to keep from losing them!)



At dinner Gabe coached Max to count to ten.  The following video represents the second time through.  (He had done slightly better the first time!)



Afterward, Gabe had Max repeat the alphabet.  It's funny to hear his pronunciation ... especially when we got to 'O' and Max pronounced it "uh-oh!"
