Aunt Sally and Aunt Sharon's Visit

I was reminded anew today that all children need at least one adult in their lives who will simply be fully present and completely silly just for them. Jack had a wonderful two days playing with Aunt Sally and Aunt Sharon, who sang all his songs, played all his music, followed his lead, and won his unending devotion.

After an afternoon of playing with blocks and the train set, Jack took Aunt Sally and Aunt Sharon outside to play with his t-ball set. What started as Ben splashing his hands in the pool, soon resulted in the entire family playing in the pool, including Jack's new favorite pool game of shaking the fish out of the trees.
