Snails




While Ellie doesn’t mind getting her hands dirty working outside, she still has to where a spinny dress and a tiara. 

We were clearing out a weed filled planter and Ellie wanted to join in the work.  She noticed all the snails and wanted to keep them safe.  At first, she moved them over to the other side of the driveway but they started to move away from her.  Then she decided to put them in a bowl, which they started to climb out of.  Ellie spent a long time trying to figure out what to do with them.  She ended up putting them in the wheelbarrow with some grass and leaves for the night.   In the morning she went out to look at them and to her disappointment they escaped!
