Ethan died and went to heaven!

This is what Ethan has been waiting for all his life! A Science fair! He loves loves LOVES science. He could hardly narrow down what experiment he would do for this years science fair. Really it was cute to see his face light up with the prospect of doing an actual science experiment. After a long week of searching and thinking we decided on "Does a peanut have enough energy to raise the temp of water". Ben and Ethan took a Saturday and burnt peanut after peanut to find out the results. Of course since they were boys with flames, they had to test other things too-jelly beans,goldfish, pecans,walnuts and other things also. They really got into it. For once we were also ahead of schedule on everything that was due but still spent the night before (or at least Ben did- I crashed on the couch next to him!) cutting out the flames for his display. I think it turned out great and Ethan couldn't stop talking about how good it looked! I love to see him get excited about learning. Things have turned a corner this year with finding out about his dyslexia and disgraphia - he is a much happier kid and I love to see anything to do with school make him happy. Way to go Ethan - You did great!
