SKID 18

Denver asked if I could help her make a rocket the other evening. It's school holidays, so we aren't snatching at the minutes, worried about early nights, and the girls are enjoying spending more time together.
We have some boxes from the move, so I took a few and constructed a rocket, the girls dubbed it *SKID18* because it had their initials S K and D and the 18 is for all their ages added together. The next morning they set about painting it.
After a trip to the library, where we picked up a stash of space books, we stopped in at the dollar shop and got some more things to decorate it. They spent the afternoon putting the finishing touches on, before launching off into space ;o).
