Robin's Egg

When my sister asked if Sophie was scared of the robin's egg in the picture on the previous post, I thought it would be a good idea to share the story. We had found two robin's eggs and and a nest laying in our yard. After no birds claimed them, I put them all on our deck in a flower pot until I decided what crafty thing I wanted to do with them. The kids were outside playing while I was getting supper ready, and Ella comes running inside telling me to come look at Sophie. I went on the deck to find that Sophie had squished one of the eggs and it exploded all over her face. If you click on the picture, you are able to see eggy explosion (note the eggshells all over her hands). Ew.
