November 5: Games Galore!

Friday isn't usually game day, but it had been awhile since Ty and I had played a game together, so I told him I was going to finish working in the office for five minutes and then we would play a game together.  I suggested he go find the game he wanted to play, he cheerfully said, "OK!" and ventured into the den on his own. 

When I left the computer room a few minutes later and met Ty in the den, this is what I walked in on.  I'm not sure if he couldn't decide what to play or if we was hoping we'd play all of them!  After cleaning up the mess, he selected Memory as our game to play (not even in the original mess).  Of course, his idea of playing Memory is to dump out all the cards on the floor and try to find  matches (just FYI- there are way too many cards in this game for a kid to play.  I usually try to pick out 8-10 pairs).  I tried to line up all the cards (face up) nicely so we could play some similar version of the original game, but by the time I finished doing that, Ty was finished with the game.  After all, he'd found three matches!
