Egypt...

Ira wrote a book today... She even threaded the side herself.
















I absolutely LOVE it.

Egyptology

Ira has always been a bit obsessed with ancient Egypt. She has watched more documentary films on Egypt than most adults I know.

In Denver, in 2009, we went to a museum that had an Egyptologist docent and Ira sat and discussed embalming with her for half an hour. The docent was quite impressed that Keira was only 3.5!


Well, lucky us, our library has an AWESOME Egyptian section...

We borrowed all these before the conflict in Egypt, but interestingly enough, her knowledge makes her very interested in the current events.

We read ALL these...


Ira drew/colored a sarcophagus.


I helped her write our names in hieroglyphics and she decorated the room.
