Snow day playdate

The schools were closed for the 6th day in two weeks, so I decided to invite Alice's good friend Grayson over for the morning.  This way, his mom could go to work for half a day, and Alice would have some extra entertainment.  It was really fun watching the kids interact.  I intervened as little as possible, but since Alice has hoarding tendencies, I would occasionally let her know when she needed to share better.












Zac texted me from work to let him know if I wanted to try for a third kid after today.  But really, there was some economy of scale and spending the morning with three kids was not any harder than with two.  In fact, it would be tempting to have three kids if we didn't have to go through pregnancy and infancy again and pay for another kid's daycare. But since that's impossible, I think we'll stick with two and just borrow a third kid every once in a while.
