Our kids have always been big on bathtime, and it is one of those things that we never spend enough time enjoying. As parents, we spend the day rushing through life just to get home in time to put together dinner quick, clean up, maybe find a couple minutes for an activity, and then we're off for a speedy bath, a book, and goodnight kisses.
Well, tonight was different. Instead we started bathtime shortly after 6pm, and I sat back while they used their imaginations together. Conversations included everything from Chucky Cheese to Rudolph. They played make-believe with computers at work, hair supplies from the salon, flu shots from the doctor, and babies from daycare, until their fingers were wrinkled!
It was fun to watch them enjoy the simple pleasures of having each other as siblings, not needing the fancy Leapsters or addicting TV to stay entertained, but soaking up the child mind. Their laughs, smiles, tackles, giggles, and swimming adventures are easy entertainment.... Even for mom!
