On Tuesday Abe announced he was going to take the kids to the new How to Train Your Dragon movie. So my mom and I went too, and we got a babysitter for Clarissa.
During the day Abe had a pretty stressful, hard day at work and I finished reading The Next Mormons at home. It was kind of depressing, so I think we all were glad for a little escape.
Also, the kids stayed home sick from school again. I spent about two hours working with Lydia on the harp in the morning, and then it was nap time so I basically retired from parenting for the rest of the day. The kids watched A LOT of tv.
Oh, and in the morning my mom and I introduced Ammon to some figure skating videos. He LOVED them. We have been watching him twirl and dance and attire himself in the frilliest costumes imaginable, and it finally clicked that he might have the soul of an ice skater. We’ll see, I guess. He certainly loved the videos and now throws his leg up behind himself and extends his arms every time you mention ice skating.
