The boys requested to play in the front yard on Thursday afternoon. It was nice and warm so I happily agreed. I sat in the grass flipping through some catalogs that came in the mail while the boys played t-ball.
When t-ball got boring I suggested that we play hopscotch on the sidewalk. Wildman helped me find some chalk then requested that I draw the squares all the way down the sidewalk to the end of street. He likes everything to be as big or as long as possible… I declined but told him that I would draw up to 15 squares. He seemed happy with that.
The thing about Wildman is that he must have his hopscotch game start with a “0” square instead of a “1”. He made sure to grab the chalk from me to correct the starting position. 🙂 Then he tacked on a few more squares on the end of the game making it go all the way up to “18”.
Wildman played a few rounds while Cutie Pie rode his scooter. Sometimes Cutie Pie would ride right over the hopscotch game much to Wildman’s chagrin.
I even gave it a try or two as well. Wildman insisted on taking my picture… I just noticed Cutie Pie fell off his scooter in the shot that Wildman took! He never complained or cried. Guess his fall wasn’t that bad 🙂
We played out front for about an hour then J came home on his motorcycle.
The wind was pretty strong which meant that J wanted to hit the beach with his friends for a kiteboarding session. We all went with him. Photos of that to come!
