overheard . . .

so i was in the study finishing the paint and listening in to the kids playing in the hall closet . . . really i was making sure they were being nice to each other because i had already broken up a few fights for the evening. . . here's what i hear:

ken: "okay, we have daddy, mommy, baby boy, kamy"
kam : repeating everything ken says
mck : "here's grammy and grampy!"
ken: repeats all of that and adds "hey, we forgot sarah!"
mck: "here she is!"

i am on the ladder thinking to myself, "what toys are in that closet?" all that comes to mind are a few odds and ends, the vhs movies, and a few ride-on toys.

then i hear ken say, "hey dad, you're a rollie-poly! how cool is that?"

oh my gosh . . . they had lined up a collection of DEAD bugs to make our family!
