04 December 2012, Tuesday We go downstairs today, and each of my kids runs off and starts creating something from scratch all by themselves. As often happens, it was spontaneous creation. Ryan ran off and created his own game, then invited me over to come play it with him. He had made little signs with the name of the game and an OPEN sign so I'd know it was ready to play. I got to throw a toy into the window, trying to get it through and then stuck behind the blinds.
