Summer vacation is flying by quickly. It is mid-June and the kids have spent their time playing video games and swimming. This is really about all they have done. Realizing this, I told them they need to think of something new to do each day and then actually do it. I sent them to bed and told them to think about it as they fell asleep.
The very next morning, they seemed to be having way too much fun eating breakfast. The laughter was steady and I heard Kyler say, “This is SO fun!” I couldn’t see what was so fun about eating cereal, but as long as they were happy, I was happy. Then, I remembered what we had talked about the night before and asked, “So, did either of you think of something new to do today?”
In unison, “Yep!”
Surprised, I said, “That’s great…what is it?”
Kyler answered for the duo, “We’re eating our cereal with forks instead of spoons!”
That is NOT what I had in mind.
Then Mae said, much too excitedly, “Hey, Kyler, tomorrow let’s eat our cereal on PLATES!”
