"Courtney. I think your lost"

Today didn't start of the best. Dad had told Courtney that we could ALL go out somewhere when Brooke wasn't at school. At breakfast Dad overheard Courtney telling Brooke that we would do something fun if she didn't go to school.... Not surprisingly, Brooke wanted to take the day off from daycare. She went anyway.
Dad and Courtney spent the morning doing science experiments together. We measured our shadows at different times of the day, we made Outrageous-Ooze and also made fizzy mixes with bi-carb soda, detergent and vinegar. We are still waiting for the sun the get warm enough to evaporate the salt water.
Then we went into the garden and started working when Courtney came up with a plan. We could walk to the park that she went to with Pa, the duck park (two suburbs away) apparently. Wanting to see the result, Dad agreed and we spent the next twenty minutes or so, walking the streets, looking for the park before... We came out of an alley way and found ourselves standing right where we had started - Courtney had navigated us in a big loop. We ended up going to the park after Brooke finished school.
We're told that Brooke had a great day at school. Apparently she has a little friend called Emily and they go everywhere together. We're told that they are toilet training each other - every twenty minutes or so. Sounds like the daycare staff are getting it easy with those two.
