Playing With Your Kids When All You Really Want To Do Is Crash On The Couch

Last night while praying Jacob (i'd started and he took over) thanked Jesus for daddy playing imaginext for ages and for taking him and Faith to the park.

My heart absolutely melted. When i got home from work the last thing i wanted to do was walk to the park, yet the pleading of the wee guy worked and his face filled with delight when i said we'd go.
He loved it, Faith loved the swings and i enjoyed talking to a good friend i haven't seen in years.

When we got home we lay on the floor and got Jake's imaginext aircraft carrier and space shuttle out, Faith simply took things off us, bit them and then handed them back before lifting something else to chew.

i crashed out when they went to bed, but Jacob's prayer made me so glad i'd done what i didn't want to do.
