Play Date


Alms for the poor?

I had the privilege of watching Dalton recently while his mommy went to her Mom-2-Mom group. Lily loves playing with D, and every time we get in the car she asks if we are going to see Dalton and Calem. On the day Dalton came to play, we had a new and exciting toy for the two of them to explore...a cardboard box! They had snacks, toys, and books in there, but what they loved most was opening and closing the windows I cut out for them. They thought it was hilarious, and I was cracking up too. A new dishwasher was something we desperately needed--but perhaps the best part of the transaction was acquiring the box it came in! That's the beauty of kids...a simple box can give a desperate mom hours of respite from active toddlers. Who needs toys?

I know Dalton had fun on his 'date' with Lily...he talks about her all the time!
