Entry for Thursday, May 21
As the poster shows...Don't Worry...Be Happy!
Happy Thursday everyone!
Mr. and Mrs. Hamer bumped into this lovely family while out looking at the tulips near Dow's Lake.
I'm sure you recognize your classmate!
And...what a beautiful sight the tulips were...
...in all their glory...
...and amazing colours!
Each tulip bed took on a different personality!
Here's my daughter, Karen, with Lilly.
Love the white ones!
What a gorgeous day to be outside.
Today in History
Lindbergh successfully landed his airplane in a field in France one day after setting off from North America.
He was a brave pilot to have undertaken such a dangerous challenge. (Some people even thought of him as being crazy to attempt such a feat!)
He became famous around the world after this solo flight!
Similarly, five years later...
...on May 21st...
...in the year 1932, Amelia Earhart successfully landed her aircraft on a field in Ireland, becoming the first female pilot to fly solo across the Atlantic Ocean!

Mme Pepe wants you to sing the "Alphabet Song" in French.
Then, she has asked that you write a French word that starts with the letters A, F, M, S and V.
Mme also tells us about an excellent French website.
It is called "Duolingo".
It is free and parents need to sign up for a subscription.
Students can learn at their own pace.
They can log in at any time of day!
