Self-discipline: please apply here =)

To Do List:

Sat. 2/29/2020 6:50PM separated calla lily and lilac, repotted both with Logan's help.  He watered them and kept running back and forth to the kitchen sink to help water them in - he thought of doing that all on his own, because he didn't want me to kill them, and then realized "wait, you're separating them!" so they would each have more space.  He kept asking me to be gentle with them.  By the end, he said, "Well, I was gonna come out here to play, but we wound up saving some plants instead!" and gave me a high-five.

- Study tree bark, check out other people's nature journals and see how they organize their thoughts/notes/illustrations, start guesstimating distances and temperatures, work on all maps for nature journal pages (make a folder of maps).
