We have a rule about leaving the house. When we open the door, the boys are to go out and wait by their rocks. We have two rocks outside the door and they've decided whose rock belongs to who (important stuff!). Anyways, it resolves the issue of them running down the walkway before we're actually ready to go. Well, I've been planning on them painting their rocks for a while now, but for some reason just haven't gotten around to it. Since Jonah is sick with a nasty cold, we've been looking for fun things to do inside. Painting the rocks was the answer! Jonah was very focused on painting his rock to be a fly. Not sure why, but it sounded simple enough. So yesterday he painted it all up. It's brown with red and pink on it, like all flys. Today I added the wings and face to it. He was SO PROUD of his fly!! So he got to do the honors of putting it back in it's spot outside the front door. Henry of course, wanted nothing to do with getting dirty or painty. Maybe another time!
The boys and their pet fly.
The fly in all it's glory.
