The boys had TaeKwonDo camp this week!
Mr. and Mrs. Mast have been doing such a great job of keeping the dojo clean and sanitized, spacing the kids out and putting them in small groups, and making sure the kids sanitize their hands on the way in and out, etc. Their indomitable spirits have been such a blessing and a safe haven in this trying, unsettling time.
The boys came home exhausted but excited and fought less/were more peaceable than they’ve been in a good long while. I’m so grateful that they got to have that fun, healthy outlet with friends. Monday was Nerf Gun Wars, Tuesday was a Scavenger Hunt, Wednesday was Water Day, and Thursday was Kickball.
By the time Friday rolled around, they needed a veg day at home. So, they did a lot of resting, snacking, hanging out with neighbors, and reading. I set up a little sensory station on the kitchen table for them to visit in between, complete with kinetic sand, play doh, water bowls with pipettes, and orbeez (water beads).
Xander and Roman started playing with the water beads, and it morphed into them dumping the orbeez into the bathtub, putting on their swim trunks, and playing peacefully together for about an hour. It reminded me of when they were little. ❤️
