Mother's Day Card

I got a handmade Mother's Day card. It was a collaborative effort between Ivan and Allen, initiated and supervised by Andy.

 Ivan drew "corn and baby ostrich"--Andy and I are clueless where he got those references--while Allen scribbled.

Reconstruction of dialogue, as narrated by Andy:

"Allen, do you want a crayon?," Andy asked.

"Dah."

He scribbled.

"Do you want another crayon?," Andy asked.

"Dah."

He scribbled.

"Do you want another crayon?"

"Dah."

"No, Allen, that's my side!" Ivan yelled. "You can't come to my side."

"OK. Ivan. I'll put my hand to block him," Andy mediated.

"That's corn and baby ostrich," Ivan explained.

What did we do today: I slept in, and then we had a busy non-mother's day day. First, the boys went to Leila's birthday party at the Wheaton train, where they had a blast, while I attended Kris's baby naming ceremony for Lola at WES. Then I picked them up and we went to Kris's for lunch. By the end of the day, the boys were exhausted, but they had a blast.
