Don't wake me up from this dream

Brace yourself for this….

Tonight, with my husband out of town, my kids were actually quite wonderful!

After dinner, we went outside to play, but we ended up weeding the flowerbeds instead. And the boys were actually quite helpful, especially Cameron. Ella did her usual flower picking, and Max would pick something and then bring it to me to ask me if it was a weed. Thankfully, since my garden hadn’t been touched in almost 2 weeks, almost everything was a weed.

Then we decided to play a little Frisbee. And instead of Cameron getting mad because Ella wanted to play and have the Frisbee all the time, he actually was very patient and kept trying to include her. He even said that she should get three tries since she was so little. Max, who recently would give up as soon as he threw the Frisbee wrong and start crying, actually stuck with it, and started to get good, even catching a few as well.

After taking turns shooting a few hoops, they came inside for baths without even complaining. They all marched upstairs and went right into the tub. Ella was so eager to get a bath, when I was looking for some towels, she decided to join her brothers before I had even taken off her clothes.

Right now they’re all downstairs snuggled on one chair watching a movie. Let’s hope bedtime goes just as smoothly.
