One of the few good things about the kids falling ill is that I got to spend some one on one time with Will last week. Monday he stayed home and we wrote daddy a love note – I made dotted letters which he traced. We made a garland of ghosts out of cheap napkins we had lying around. Will laid a napkin out un-folded, smushed another in the center, and then tied the head. Always a little scientist, he tampered with the ghost recipe making a few with two and three napkins in the head. He learned to tie a simple square knot. Thinking back to our afternoon, I’m not sure why I didn’t get him to make me a spider web out of our ball of string – the kid is amazing at tying knots!
