Rock Collectors

Anders and Jorja have taken an interest in collecting and storing rocks. This past week they commandeered one of the kitty litter pails that I tote around the yard to collect pruned clippings and converted it into their own rock collection bin. I cannot begin to describe the pure joy in sitting back and watching 19 month old twins totally amuse themselves, without adult intervention, for lengthy periods of time. Ahhh...


Inspecting and determining the suitability of a rock for potential collection.



Heading for the collection bin with a handful of parking pad gravel bits.



Bound and determined to make a rock deposit in the collection bin.



Another successful deposit.



The results of Day 1 of The Rock Collection.

Alright! Geologists in the making! Do I get to take them to work with me in a few years?
