This particular evening it happened to be the Junior Scrabble game that we scored at the neighbors garage sale!
Zach is especially LOVES games, that is if he's winning!! As soon as he realizes that he isn't going to win he is somehow either able to talk himself out losing or able to make losing seem really "cool" and something that everyone should do. This night he and I were on a team against Seth and Daddy. We were losing right off the bat and by the end of the game he managed to talk Justin and Seth into all being on one big team so that nobody lost.
Seth is getting better at playing games. For only being 3 1/2 he does quite really great, but he has no concept of being secretive. What's in his hand whether the Old Maid, or coveted letter is no secret to any of his competitors.
I'm sure someday our boys will decide that games at home with Mom and Dad are not cool at all, but until then we will take advantage of it and enjoy it!!

Hopefully it will be many years down the road before they don't think it's cool to play games with mom and dad. They'll probably just bring their friends home to play games at their house. Enjoy.
Sounds like great fun! Kaleena doesn't have any board games and I was just thinking that she would really enjoy doing that. We do a lot of reading each night, but games would be a fun change and a good challenge for her! can't wait to see you guys soon! the kids will have so much fun sleeping in the same room:)
These are precious times with the boys and will really help them excel in school! Great job! NV Grandpa Sel
