Hangin' with the Big Boys

Tonight we watched our friends' boys so they could go to a hockey game. Watching them is pretty easy. We combined food to make a decent dinner for all of us and while dinner was cooking, all the boys played basketball in the living room. They raised the hoop and even Gerrit was able to make a bucket or two at a higher height (impressive). After dinner and a yummy dessert (cookie monsters w/ peppermint stick ice cream), we all headed to the basement. When I made it down, the boys were wrestling - Gerrit included! He loves to wrestle with Adam and a few more boys in the house, meant more to wrestle with! He jumped on them and steamrolled them until his cheeks were rosy red. I just hope he can keep the wrestling to the boys and be gentle around his mother (especially in the mornings).
