Last week we had our “first annual” kidlympics. We had been watching the Olympics quite a bit over the last few weeks and the kids were into it. Most of what it entailed was daddy making up “events” that were cleverly weighted toward Timothy and Bethany’s various strongsuits.

We had a figure skating event where we twirled to music in the living room, races back and forth to the fence, a bouncing contest of endurance, speed “skating”, hockey and the kids favorite : flip flop races (doing flips across the living room).

All in all, a great evening. We all had fun and I can see having lots of fun like that in years to come. But the best part was the bonus that they slept very well
