On the car ride on the way home from school:
Daniel: "I made this for mom. She has been a good mom, so I made this for her."
No response from Dad.
Daniel: "Dad did you hear me? Your wife has been good, so I made this for her."

Ghost of Christmas Future
We just got back some work the kids did at school before Christmas break. One of Charlie's activities was to tell about a Christmas in the past, Christmas presently and a Christmas in the future. I assume this task was a part of a unit on A Christmas Carol. For his sentence on a Christmas Future he wrote:
"When I am 35 years old, I will spend Christmas with my cousins."
I sure hope so, buddy . . .

Craziness Revisited
In case you thought that yesterday's video was just a fun occurrence, you have to understand that our house is like this at least 50% of the time that all four of them are present and conscious. That may actually be a gross understatement . . .
I suppose we should count our blessings that they love to play together and enjoy each other's company half the time. However, we see friends and family with kids who will just sit and read or play quietly and we wonder . . . "What's that like?"
As a side note, the interactions contained in the above video were followed by more "train" action that was depicted in yesterday's video, a rousing game of duck-duck-goose and rounded out by a game of their own devising called zig-zag tag which is played on the multi-colored, checkerboard rug that is in our den.
