My conversation with Evan:
Me- Evan I have time to play Uno with you before Thomas wakes up. Would you rather play Uno with me or help me clean the toilets?
Evan- Clean the toilets, I'm a good worker!
Later on, Evan- I didn't know cleaning the toilets was so much fun!

Jarom returned home from his first camp out for 11yr old scouts. We were in a rush to get to our next activity that day right when he got home. I could tell he wasn't in the mood to leave the house again, but I tried to get him to talk to me about the trip to lighten his mood. I asked him to tell me the best two things about his camp out. He pointed to me and Ben and said, " I didn't miss you and I didn't miss you!"
He later told me that he loved playing blind volleyball and shooting guns, and was very bored during the reverence activity when he had to sit still for 5 minutes.
It was fun, but stinkin hot.
