Weekend at Home

Friday Tatiana went to co-op.   She really seemed to enjoy playing with the magnets from the magnet lab.  I asked if she'd enjoyed the class.   Apparently all the kids were grumpy because Scotland made them do the lab instead of just playing with the magnets.  So, Tatiana was really happy to be able to play with the magnets.  She didn't realize it, but she was learning stuff about magnetism while playing.

When I got home all three Stallman boys were over.  They were playing the Lego board game when I got home.   Scotland was feeling poorly so he laid down for an hour.   It had been storming all day.  When it stopped raining for 10 seconds, they ran outside to the trampoline.  Scotland took the boys home. 

Later the electric went out.  Tatiana always gets irrationally scared when it storms and doubly scared if the electric went out. We had been playing Monopoly Card Game as a family.   Tatiana was trouncing us when the electric went out.  It was near bedtime.  So we listened to Woof in the big bed.  Then she moved to her bed and took Woof with her.   She has decided that she will name her first dog "Bowser" after the dog in the book. 

Saturday we stayed inside all day.   Tatiana stayed in her Friday night nightgown until around noon Sunday.  She did a certain amount of schoolwork, when we'd play a game, (repeat).

Sunday was the same.   She'd had a bit of a sore throat.  So, when they were both sleeping when we should start to get ready for church, I let them sleep.   Scotland went to visit Godfather Ty and take him something.  She was VERY disappointed she couldn't go.  When Scotland got home he laid down to recover from the drive and told Taitana that they'd play lego if she cleaned off the kitchen table.  She did, so they played for about a half hour.

This morning, Monday, shortly before I got out of bed, Tatiana came in saying that she'd had a 'bad dream' and asked to sleep in our bed.   Scotland and I were sleeping back-to-back.  I heard Tatiana say "Hmmm"  and then a little later "Hmmm" again.   I asked if she wanted to sleep between us, and she said "Yes" happily.   She'd been confused because there was nowhere for her to sleep.
