House of Envelopes

Last night when I returned from Huntsville (I picked up J who spent the day with his grandparents), CD proudly showed me her House of Envelopes. This model used 26 envelopes. Today after church she practiced making several different "houses", getting rather discouraged when they would tumble before completion. I told her it just makes the completion that much sweeter and more rewarding. She did complete several others--all much larger.

I thought I'd take a picture in case it collapsed---but as you will see, this one did not. She completed it using 100 envelopes. Congratulations CD!



Ta-Da!

I'll have to show this to Daniel, he'll be envious. He loves to try and build things, but gets discouraged too easily.
