Creativity


As I have written before, one of the things I enjoy most is seeing what my boys will come up with next. Last week while visiting with Ryan's family, Colin and Pryce discovered some ostrich skin boots that belong to G-Dad. They each put a pair on, ran next door to Uncle Fred's house and borrowed some toy guns, then began their adventures in the Drafts' backyard. A little while later, they came inside and invited me to view a scene from their movie they were busy creating, the title "The Chronicles of the Horizon Wars". They clunked around in those boots all day, hoisting their guns, talking for hours. It was perfect. When they finally got tired, they came inside and went upstairs to their "secret hideout"....a closet way off in the corner of the house. Boys will be boys.....and girls will be girls. In MK news, she is quickly becoming somewhat of a mini-me. This morning as we were preparing for breakfast, I put Mason-Kate into her booster seat. Finley, whom she tends to argue with the most, jumped up to see what might be on her tray. She said, in quite a stern tone, "NO-Ma'am"....wonder where she has heard that?!
