Fridays are Family Day around here!

October 19, 2012 - Fridays are fun and more relaxed than our other days of the week. One of our grown daughters has two children, a three year old boy soon to be four and a brand new baby who is 12 weeks old.  She brings her children, our grandchildren, over on Fridays.

Tristan ( our ten year old) is so excited each Friday to play with his nephews. He loves babies. When the baby is here, he holds him and takes care of him. I don't pressure him much about school work on Fridays because it is important to know and understand how to live in the real world outside of academia.

Today he took care of the baby. That right there is life school! He knows how to hold a baby, walk around with a baby and entertain a baby. He loves to hug the baby.

He told me today that no one should be able to kill a baby ( abortion) because the babies deserve to live and they are so cute.

Then he and the three year old played war, army, knights and all that male dominance stuff:). They get so creative. Tristan dresses up in these amazingly creative costumes and then packs himself up with toy guns, the nerf weapons and really nice and sturdy swords.

So today was a great family fun day.
