Even so, I will do this sort of thing again and again. I'm re-living the childhood that a house full of teenage boys prevented me from having: Playing dress-up and pretend as a family.
For our Family Home Evening on Monday, we taught the story of Noah's Ark to Lydia. Then, we dressed up in period costume-Lydia with a headscarf and Mommy and Daddy in bathrobes. (Watch for our "Best Costume" nomination in the next Oscars.)
We built a boat,
and gathered the animals.
We brought enough food for 40 days and nights (or 4 minutes) and had a little picnic.
After we had a good snack, we made sure the animals were eating too. It was hard work!
