Benny, as he is running pell mell to the bathroom: "HEY! COOL! WE FOUND IT! THE POTTY! HERE IT IS! NOW WE CAN GO POTTY! BUT ME FIRST, QUICK, COME ON UP!!"

Today all the "kids" all watched Benny practice the violin from the sofa. The kids had been playing a game called "getting squares" with Sadie's quilt. I don't know how to play it and I wasn't *allowed* to play it because it's "just for kids." There are a few regular "kids," those being Big Brother Nemo, Sadie (a boy, not a girl), and Gabe (pretend Gabe). Then there are others that cycle through. All sat on the sofa and cheered for Benny (he did all the voices) and then requested more songs, more songs! Hehehe. They said things like, "HOORAY FOR LIGHTLY ROW AND SONG OF THE WIND! HOORAY!" Did I totally choke with love? Yes.

Today Benny had LOTS of fun at boat camp. He told me "Ms. Joanne and Henry and Virginia got in their teacher cars and ran away! And Mrs. Ford came and then space camp was boat camp!!!" Hehehe. He thinks back longingly to Ms. Joanne and Henry I think... but he adores Mrs. Ford and he's having a fabulous time. It's good that he misses space camp -- it means he had a good time. :) Today after boat camp we went to Gabe's house and he played with Gabe. They play SO ROUGH together -- they need a padded room, seriously! They love to wrestle and it makes me insane because one of them always ends up hurt and crying, and today it was Benny with a bang on the head. Bad! We keep trying to talk to them about being careful with each other -- they just love each other so much, and they always hug and say, "I love you, Benny/Gabe! You're my best friend!" But it's so tempting to be rough, and it seems to just come out of them.

Benny just came rushing in the room and said, "HEY LOOK OVER HERE! BENNY HAS A KEYBOARD! LET'S PLAY IT AND MAKE SURE SOUNDS COME OUT!!!" Hehehe.
