Worms and The Zoo Bus

Both Kedrick and Victor have vivid imaginations. Listening to them play together is the most entertaining part of my day.

The other day, Kedrick said, 
"Mom! Look! Worms!"
"Where?" I asked.
"In your bathtub."
I looked in the tub. No worms.
I asked, "In the bathtub?"
Kedrick, pointing to the bottom of the tub, replied, "Yes, look. There are worms all over."
Invisible worms crawling around my bathtub. Great!

Kedrick and Victor will often arrange their kid-sized chairs in different patterns to make cars, boats, trains, etc. Today the chairs formed a straight line. 
Victor said, "A train!" Kedrick said, "No, its a bus." Then back and forth...
"Train"
"Bus"
"No, Train!"
"No, Bus!"
"TRAIN!!!"
"BUS!!!"
"TRAIN!!!!!!!!"
"No, Victor, it's a bus, to go to the zoo."
"Oooh! The zoo! It's a bus. To go to the zoo."
Then they got in the bus and went to the zoo.

Notice their zoo shirts and zoo hats...gifts from Grandma during our recent trip to the zoo.

Jujitsu Grappling Tournament

Last weekend, Damie competed in a local grappling tournament. He participated in three different divisions, two of them wearing a gi. It was his first time fighting in a gi! He took first place in one division and second place in the other two. Great job Damie!!!

The Moon

The other night as we were getting into the car, Kedrick said, 
"Look Mom, the moon!
God made the moon.
God made the moon for me.
I want to thank God for the moon." 
So together we said, "Thank you God for the moon."

Visors

Kedrick and Victor made these visors yesterday, thanks to the remarkable craft kit Jen gave Kedrick for his last birthday. The boys love their hats and wore them all day. Thanks Jen!
