Here are three recent photos of life around here:
Lego Bed
In our house, the phrase “make your bed” usually means “move the Legos off the bed” rather than “straighten the sheets and pillows”. In fact, that has become part of the bedtime ritual – change into pajamas, brush teeth, put away Legos, read a story, and say prayers. Beta probably likes to have his Legos on his bed because his is the top bunk, so no one bothers anything up there.
Driver’s Ed
Beta’s cousins have one of them fancy battery-powered toy trucks. And Beta loves to drive that whenever he’s over there. Now Gamma is old enough to ride in it. They shared a ride last weekend, and I just really like this photo.
Blokus Art
My wife and I like playing games. I want the kids to like games too, so I try to play whatever board games we have that might be appropriate. Blokus is fun, and the kids get the concept, but they don’t have the sense of challenge in playing the game yet. Alpha and Beta will play (against each other or against me), but as soon as it is done, they eagerly take apart the board and proceed to make patterns or pictures with the pieces. Alpha liked this masterpiece; I liked that he made sure all 4 colors were symmetric.
See that you make them after the pattern for them, which was shown to you on the mountain.

I like Alpha’s art work too. We have Playmobil bed at our house right now.

I’m always surprised at what I find in bed with my children each morning. They get up and get toys after I’ve turned off the light and shut the door. Legos, stick horses (and they’ve never seen the Godfather) Match Box cars. It’s amazing they have room to sleep.
