An "In-Tents" Night


The kids chose "having a sleepover in a tent" as their second "prize"/incentive for their Summer Bridge books.

Since they finished the second section just before we headed off to vacation, we decided to postpone fulfilling it until we got back.

So last Thursday night, Stuart popped up the fullsized pop-tent in Emily's room and watched as her room "disappeared" for the night.

The kids piled in with thousands a couple of blankets, myriads specially-chosen few stuffed toys, and sleeping bags and....

Chatted until I finally went up around 10 p.m. and told them it was time to sleep (they're such early risers!). No doubt the chatting continued via whispering for a while longer...

Still, it makes us pleased that they enjoy each other's company so much -- a blessing we hope they always enjoy.
