Let's play a game.
Because if you know our family we play A LOT of games--which sometimes might shock our friends when they see our game closet or frighten them when we make them play hide-and-seek in the dark and stick their feet in a circle and recite "My dog died last night, what color was his blood?" to decide who has to be IT first. (um, Dear Stock's, I apologize for the scariness. Love, Laura).
My game today: Read the question and decide if the answer the boy gives is correct or not. You can agree or disagree with his answer. If you correctly do so, give yourself a point. If you disagree and say the correct answer of your own accord, give yorself another point.

Answers:
1. Agree
2. Agree, sort of. Like Kyler mentioned, I don't think that he whips out his light saber on a daily basis, I do think he solves a lot of problems, counts a bunch of parts, works a lot at the computer and with numbers, and comes home really tired.
3. Agree.
4. Nice try Kyler. Though he claims he never falls asleep until really late at night, he is slumbering soundly by 8 (or 7:30 or 7, depending on his and mommy's mood).
5. Disagree. Somewhere in between. How about 10-12 hours.
6. Agree.
7. Agree. And clean up and read, too.
8. Partially Disagree. Kyler never naps. Nor Kacin anymore. They read.
9. Though, of course you think Disneyland, I can't write disagree because their answers are fitting. I love that Kacin didn't even heistate. He is so happy here. And of course ice cream man Kyler didn't hesitate either.
10. Agree.
11. Strongly Disagree. I was more excited about the apples and the pistachios we bought.
12. Agree, I guess. It really depends on the day and since I have done that before, ok. but I am also frequently volunteering in the boys classrooms, exercising, and just getting random things done that need to be done.
13. Disagree! I love Valentine's Day the best. In 10 days, Kacin will learn this . . .
14. How can you disagree with Kacin's answer? The real answer has something to do with mountains and the ocean and the wind blowing or something like that. Don't quote me.
15. Agree.
16. Agree. Funny that he points the same car out on the road all the time. Too bad I don't know the name either.
17. I am now a Beehive Advisor (12-13 year old girls) and Eric is a youth sunday school teacher.
18. Agree.
See, aren't games so much fun?
Thanks for playing!
dear allred's
it wasn't scary, just funny.
okay, so I am kind of afraid of the dark, especially when little boys jump out and say "boo" and I scream like a little girl.
and next time I am using chartreuse so you better learn how to spell it :)
museum today was fun. air and flight museum in march?
love,
stocks
Oh, Laura, This makes me happy and sad! It is so cute, and I am glad that you all are having fun there, but I wish it was the Allens playing with you. (Sorry Stocks!) Think what Kacin's answer really meant - The happiest place in the world is where his family is together. Ah, my Buddies are so sweet. . .
Fun things! And you're a good mommy!
So cute. I love it. And I miss you and your fun games. I need to be more like you so that my kids can have a fun childhood.
I thought of Adalyn's question to me today when I read Kacin's idea of how long they sleep: "Mom, is dad almost 30? No wait, is he almost 90?"
I love playing your game. Tel the boys I love them.
