Hunting Dinosaurs

 Tonight is one of those nights that I enjoy playing with my kids. Some nights they just fight the whole time or disobey me every 5 minutes. But tonight we had a blast. 

 My husband is working evenings this week. After a few nights of it, the boys and I start getting frustrated with each other. 

 Sometimes I get so caught up in other things that don't matter. Like facebook or looking at recipes pinterest. Anything to distract myself. Sometimes I get frustrated when they try to interrupt. Now Josiah grabs my faces and says, "Mommy, look at me. I need to talk to you." It really stings when he has to get my attention because I don't pay attention to him from the start. Sometimes I block them out because  I get tired of having to stop their brawls or their mess making. I'll just have them help clean it up when its done. If they hurt themselves fighting, maybe they'll learn from it? 

 But there are lots of times where they ask me to play and I do. We play cars or racing or wrestling. Jo is getting a little too rough, so I try to hold him off til Daddy is home to wrestle. 

Tonight they found flashlights and shut off all the lights. When I asked what they were doing, Josiah was immediately offended. He told me "SHHH, mommy! What's that? Find the dinosaurs!" So we walked through all the rooms and looked under all our toys and blankets. But all we could find were invisible sleeping spiders! Josiah wouldn't let me squish them. And then a dinosaur got me and so Josiah had to shoot me. But when they sat on me I came back to life. Then I cooked them into some brother stew. But they said they tasted like poop, so I didn't eat them. Then we played "hide and go scare". Which is basically where I hide in the dark and they come find me and I scare them. They love it! Now that Jo is older, he hides too. Kaiden tries to hide but... its ALWAYS under the table. Every. Time. Josiah is a good big brother though, and does a really good fake scream and acts like Kaid really scared him. 

 The last few days they have been cracking me up. Josiah has decided he's a comedian. Everything he says is followed by, "That was funny, huh?" and then a chuckle. 

 He told me he wanted to go swimming yesterday. After I explained it was too cold and we could go when it was warm, he said "I have a jacket, Ma!". His logic is fool proof. 

They have provided more laughs for me this week than a real comedian would have.
