Sunday Stories

Ha, ha.  Only one day late this time.

Jackson loves Yahtzee.  I mean LOVES it.  So much so that he would ask Mike or me to play with him as many times as possible throughout the day.  A few weeks ago we couldn't take it anymore and Mike instituted a 3-games-a-day rule.  That has somehow blossomed into 4 games.  But this is a more manageable number no matter what.  When we have finished the 3 or 4 games, we simply remind Jackson that we are finished for the day.

Well, that is not enough for the young Yahtzee king.  He has decided to start playing against himself.  He labels the score cards with "Jackson #1" and "Jackson #2" and goes on to roll those dice with gusto.  And don't forget that he must announce his scores to us at the end of each game.  Thank heaven he can do all the addition on the score cards or Mike and I would still be in for some kind of involvement in the playing of extra Yahtzee!


Max and Daddy were playing Legos.  Daddy found some missing piece for Max.  Max proceeded to pat Mike on the head and stated, "You're a good dad,  Daddy," which was said in that patronizing way we sometimes talk to our children.
