Living with Mim and Papa

These kids of mine have got to L-O-V-E living with Mim and Papa.  Sure, you get the added attention, the extra bedtime hugs, the bonus people to ask for a cookie.... a sucker who'll let you sit up and watch America's Funniest Home Videos when you should be getting into bed.  But, life with Mim and Papa is fun in its own unique way.  For example, tonight I asked Addison if he could find Asa and go help him clean up some LEGOs.  "I can't", he answered.  "Asa's having tea."  Yes, he and Mim were enjoying a cup of hot peppermint tea with a splash of honey.  As I sit here in my room, at 10:00 at night, both of my boys are up playing a mean game of rummy with Mim.  Luckily, we homeschool, so I just don't care.  Oh, and it's a snow day ta boot.  They had a big day sledding down the ice hill on Tupperware container lids and still got in a day of school.  Let 'em play!
