Battleship, Dudes!

Jamie loves games. Computer games, card games, playground games, board games. If it were up to him, he'd spend all day playing a game. The kids were playing next door when he came home all dejected saying the girls didn't wanna play with him...

Let me digress for a second... it's been interesting to see the change over the past several months. The little girl next door is the same age as Jamie, but she's a girl. When we first moved here, Cassie was still pretty little (I remember sending her next door in a pull up and praying she didn't have an accident!) so the little girl and Jamie were closer. But now... the girl stuff has outweighed it as Cassie has gotten older. I dunno, it's probably good because when Jamie started school, he knew the little girl would be there and now that Cassie will start, she knows she will have them both there. I'm kind of sad for Jamie though. He really wants to play with them... BUT Jamie also I'm sure is being difficult. Things have to be a certain way for him to agree to it, so his neurosis are probably driving the girls crazy. Anyway...

So, he came home and came into my office (yes, I was working - welcome to tax season) and asked me to play. So... we played. He is actually pretty good - he beat me the last time, but I got him this time! He is a surprisingly good sport about it too. Anyway... ignore the clutter that is my kitchen area right now - seriously, it's disgusting - here he is waiting for me put down the stupid camera and play already!
