Nights with Daddy don’t come often (this one was from last week). But Dad was home and Ben got legos for his birthday. So the evening was spent building the lego boat that Ben got. We have learned something very valuable this week. One . . . Ben is not Madie when it comes to school. Ben is his own person. Two . . . Ben can think in 3 dimensional in ways that many could only dream of. He worked on the boat by himself without following instructions and just building by looking at the big picture. Chris said he did it beautifully. Like a master. Madie was mad at Ben for finishing the boat the next day with the rest of them. (Don’t worry. Ainsley managed to break the top off completely the next day causing major damage and needing a lot of repair. Thank goodness. Now they have something to work on again.)
The kids love it when Daddy is home and they get to hang with him. They were even willing to give up books before bed in order to build more with Daddy. Now that is saying something.
