Grandma and Grandpa gave the big boys a giant trunk full of dress up clothes for Christmas. You would not believe how much fun we are having. My boys would rather play pretend than any other thing. For example, if I get out the legos in hopes of building something elaborate with them, they build for approximately 3 and a half minutes before their brains turn OFF builder mode and into "what can we pretend these legos are instead." So they aren't going to be architects....
My favorite thing they pretend recently is "The Exodus." The other day I walked into the living room where they were dancing to music. Elliott promptly informed me that they were getting married.
"You can't marry your brother," I replied.
"No, Mom." He retorted. "I'm Zipporah. Caleb's Moses."
Stay tuned for a series of pictures from the trunk.
"Behold, children are a heritage from the Lord, the fruit of the womb a reward. Like arrows in the hand of a warrior are the children of one's youth. Blessed is the man who fills his quiver with them." Psalm 127:3-5
