Ingenuity

We are blessed to have some great neighbors. A few doors down there are the sweetest 10 year old twin girls. They were part of the neighborhood circus I blogged about a few weeks ago. Anyway, one of the girls came down to play with the boys while we were outside tonight. Owen and Miles were thrilled and immediately bombarded her with hugs and game requests. They drew pictures with the sidewalk chalk, ran a few quick races and played a game of tag. Then it happened. Owen wanted to play hide and seek and Miles wanted to play Ring Around the Rosie. What a quandary! Well, this little 10 year old handled the situation with the wit and wisdom of a seasoned mom. "Ok Owen, you go hide. Miles and I will count while playing Ring around the Rosie!" Now that is ingenuity. Owen was happy, Miles was happy, I was happy!

Here are some pictures of the happy boys at a recent trip to the Pumpkin Patch!
