Saturdays

Saturdays are tough to keep the kids indoors. Rain or shine, Carter wants to be out on his bike. This week marks a big step for Beckett. He now gets to go out with the big boys. They take a Walkie-Talkie and out they go. Carter has to take a slower pace, but Beckett has to work harder to keep up. So far, it is working. I am very proud of the other boys – who almost all have little brothers of their own – who don’t even balk at Beckett joining along.

 Roslyn and I played some games inside. This game was given to her for her birthday a few years ago by her friend Zoe. It is great fun. It is called “Kids on Stage” – it is a game of charades.

Roslyn involved her “Cheetah Snake” to be her tail, and her hair is being held down as a mane to act out a Lion.

This is her “Scissors” – which took a lot of thinking. She has one handle shorter than the other, and she was moving her legs back and forth.

Then, her and Vortex did beads together. He was thrilled.
