Sekrit medinge

Yesterday I proclaimed the rest of the week a holiday. All I required of the kids was to not make any messes. You can laugh now. Anyhow.

This morning the kids wanted to have a "secret meeting". This, as the name suggests, involves finding a secret place to have a meeting, with only the kids invited. They love having these.

First they set up shop under Sammy's bed, in a fort they made there a couple of days ago. Unfortunately for them, it was Lincoln's nap time, so they got kicked out of the room. So they moved into my room, and were planning and scheming and running up and down the stairs for at least an hour and a half. It was so fun to hear them giggling and to not see them sneaking past me.

They made signs saying "sekrit medinge" and posted them all over the house, with arrows pointing in the direction of the meeting location. They placed them low on the wall so that Stephen and I couldn't find out where the meeting was being held, because, after all, it was "sekrit"!

I don't think they ever actually had the secret meeting, but boy did they ever have fun planning it!
