Last night I was invited to play B
unko with some of the girls from our Bible class. Jonathan has always been great about keeping the kids when I have something like this to do. Last night I had dinner ready and homework finished when he got home so at least he wouldn't have to deal with that on top of keeping all three of them. After finishing up dinner and having an hour long discussion with
Jennah about being truthful (a story for another time) it was time for bed.
Jonathan said they were all in bed and Jack got up and told him that he had to get his Grandparents Day projects finished by Tuesday or he would not be able to play on recess. Jonathan went ahead and let him do it thinking I had forgotten about it or something. The project isn't due until the 22
nd, but I guess as incentive to get it back earlier she made them miss recess until they returned it. He had to interview one Grandparent and write an acrostics poem for a Grandparent. We had talked Sunday about who he wanted to do each of the projects with. Nana for the interview and Grandma Janet for the
acrostics poem. Jack told Jonathan what our plans were and they were off.
The interview turned out great; the acrostics poem on the other hand not so great. I looked at it when I got home last night and laughed until I was crying. Jonathan and Jack are not the most creative people in the world let me show you what they came up with.

I really appreciate all that Jonathan does, and I am definitely not super creative but poems are just not a strength of his. I was able to help Jack change some of the poem and it turned out okay.
This weekend was our annual reunion with Jonathan's family to Lake Murray. This year we were smart and got a cabin instead of tent camping. It wasn't much nicer than the tent we had last year but it was much warmer. Just like every year the kids played way to hard and I ate way too many smores. Nothing really exciting happened just typical family reunion stuff. Just wanted to update. 
My wonderful husband has taken it upon himself to fix a good breakfast for the kids every morning. His mom fixed a warm breakfast for him every morning and he wants our kids to have the same. Jonathan doesn't remember much growing up but he does remember breakfast. This particular morning he made french toast. After the kids went to school I went to make Joel's bed and noticed my little sidekick wasn't there and I couldn't hear him. I started running through the house yelling for him. This is how I found him. It is amazing what all they can get into in such a small amount of time. Joel loves french toast especially the powdered sugar that goes on top.
