I wish I was the mom who planned lego day or frozen yogart day - I'm the mom with the goal of returning the report card to school that we've had at home for two weeks.
For Christmas, I purchased my 7 year old a "How Things Work" book. He can't or won't read all the text, so we try to build things via the pictures. He also got a bucket of gears from his Gran and Grandad. The boy is busy.
His four year old brother, "Huggy, mommy huggy, kissy, mommy KISSY" is very affectionate and today hugged his classmates at school so hard some of them got a bit red in the face.
These boys who equally love each other and fight with each other get most excited to spend time in the garage with their dad, working on "Old Blue," a 1948 Chevrolet truck that my husband "won" on Ebay.
Anyway, that's a brief introduction. Time for teeth brushing and goodnight book reading.
