A few weeks ago I had the opportunity to speak at a winter camp and was able to take my family with me... for the most part. The family stayed at my mom's house since Sophie was feeling a little sick and I headed down to the camp. On the way up to the camp a cool time happened that was encouraging to my kids (at I think it was).
We were sitting at Starbucks in Barstow, CA and were about to leave. Before we packed up I took a picture of Charity with a funny face. It spurred me to start taking some pictures with my kids while we made funny faces and here is what we got:
Now you may be trying to get the correlation between the monkey face so bear with me real quick. See this was a time in my life that I could herd my kids back to the car or spend some time encouraging them to be creative. Now I am sure that their first grade teachers will not like this behavior but when they are young and we can have fun like this I want to encourage my kids to be creative. The best thing about spending time with them like this is that I get memories that will last a lifetime as I build my relationship with them.
