I had a proud mommy moment yesterday! I went to a nature preserve with Lucie and her 3 rd grade class. I was in charge of helping in the owl pellet dissections. I thought it was interesting and our guide promised that they had been sterilized. Nonetheless many of the students were squeamish. Lucie just dove in. She was all hands on and just loved it. Separating the small bones she found, using the magnifying glass. So focused (which is not always her forte) At one point she looked up at the specialist from the Nature preserve and said, "I really want to be scientist." The woman looked at me, almost teary eyed, and said, "This is why I do this."
