Rainy days

I felt badly for the teachers the last two days of the week, in which it rained most of both days.  Today, I had that same experience with the kids.  We did family errands for the morning.  While we were out, Peyton said, “I wanna go see Gramma.  No, I wanna see Papa.  And…Taipo, and Unck Gawee, Aunt Jean, Unck Mawk, and Unck Jeff!”  When we got home, both had lunch then took their naps.  In the afternoon Dave was working on a faucet while I tried to entertain two kids with cabin fever.  Luckily, Brandon got a lot of games last week, so we started playing them.  We played Jr Scrabble again, and this time, I played with Peyton on my lap.  She was a good helper, helping me identify and find letters.  I had a D in front of me, and she looked down and said, “D like dinosaur!  And Daddy!”  She was so proud of herself.  Brandon learned the art of losing graciously, as I bested him this game.  He didn’t cry, but he said he was feeling sick because he lost.  He shook my hand, and said, “Good game.”  We cleaned up, then went upstairs to read some books.  After we did that, we played Zingo – it’s like bingo, with pictures and words.  Peyton was our dealer, and kept track of the pieces.  She also had fun identifying the pictures, along with us.  She did have to hear me say “No,” while we were playing.  Her pouty lip came out, and I was trying hard to get it on video.  She recovered too quickly.  She got it last night, and we were so busy laughing at it, that we didn’t capture it on video.  She tries to be so composed, but it just pooches out.  She sucks it back in, then out it comes again.  Tears will roll ever so slowly, and it’s only when she scolded by someone else that the uncontrollable tears and sobbing will happen.  Dave was finished up with the sink after I had given Peyton a bath.  I wasn’t going to initially since we really hadn’t gone anywhere, but while I was vacuuming downstairs, with the Only a generic cialis sample physician after physical examination can recommend the most suitable dose to deal with erectile dysfunction.
