It is a LOUD morning up in here!! The kids are elbows deep in their Christmas gifts, and they really hit the jackpot this year. They were gifted so many fun activities, and they have been enjoying them fully over the last few days. So far this morning, Laela and Rowan are playing PlayDoh, and Dekker is working on a Smithsonian kit, chiselling away for dinosaur bones. Solly is thrilled to have the freedom to play with EVERYTHING else, with no interruption, though he occasionally joins the group and watches the palaeontologist at work. There is a LOT of hammering but we have a happy group, and that makes me happy, too.
I don’t anticipate Dekker will recover any full dinosaurs today, so likely the hammering will soon be done for the moment, and the kids will trade out their PlayDoh for their kinetic sand kits. They have been having SO much fun with all their new games and activities. Thank you to our wonderful friends and family who gifted our kids amaaazing gifts that they love!! Very thoughtful, all around.
Its been such an active morning of Christmas presents and working together that I just realized I haven’t eaten. No wonder I’m feeling kind of gross and sick. Its been too fun of a morning to notice. Whoops!
Off to get some breakfast!
