Ben, will you do the dishes?

With hot weather in full swing, I am looking for creative ways to keep Ben and Maddie busy, but cool. This was an activity that suited Ben better. (I promise I do really fun things with Maddie- just not dangerous things- she is only one!) Maddie had a virus this week and spent a little more time than usual resting. She is much better and back to her cat-napping schedule. I am exhausted, but still feel the need to get this posting up. Well, I digress! I asked Ben to "do the dishes" and he gladly helped. Even though he was more interested in washing himself, he still had lots of fun!
