Crashing Cars

Last night the boys were playing in the toy room and I was sitting in the hall. I saw one of the boys cars- the kind that you pull back and let go. I pulled it back as far as I could and sent it sailing down the stair. It flew off the top step, ran into the wall, bounced across the landing, and went down the next set of steps.

The boys went nuts with excitement. We spent the next half hour crashing cars down the stairs. Kenny would dance and put his hands up yelling "Yeah" every time the cars hit tumbled down the stairs. Of course Nathan would copy him. When Nathan tries to jump he only manages to stomp one of his feet. And when he raises his hands up his hands barely clear the top of his head. It was so cute to see them having such a great time.My parents invited us to dinner tonight. We went to Chili's. Daddy had to work tonight, so I had to get him something to go. The boys were so well behaved at the restaurant. We were able to have a lovely meal. When we got home, I spent an hour getting the house all clean so that tomorrow we can have a nice, relaxing day. Ken doesn't have to work and we don't have anything to do except grocery shopping. I am really looking forward to this weekend.
