That night, Dennis had his monthly poker night at our house. I am really starting to enjoy these poker nights as much as the men do. I love the quiet, alone time.
The weekend was fairly uneventful. On Sunday I watched Evan's CCD class at church because his teacher was out of town. It was fun to see what they do during the class. During prayer circle each child says something they want everyone to pray for and Evan said, "I pray for my Aunt who is going through a divorce." It definitely made me tear up. Sad that at 6 years old he had to be talked to about divorce and what that means. He has such a big heart and is such an empathetic boy, that I know it has probably been on his mind a lot since we told him.
In happier news, on Tuesday, Evan had his friend Noah come home with him on the school bus for a play date. This was a first for him and he really enjoyed it. They did their homework and then played in the basement. They were both very silly, I guess it is the age.
Wednesday, Leah and I visited the boys' school and had lunch with Evan. I have to admit, he barely paid me any attention. Him and his buddies talked football the entire time! It was actually really funny to hear how much they new and how animated they were about it all. It was good to see that he has so many friends.
On Thursday, Leah clapped for the first time! I was so excited to get it on camera too! She was so proud of herself, and Logan was so happy for her too!
On Friday, we did a movie night. I told the boys we had a surprise for them. The movie was their first clue and then they could open a present under the tree, which is their second clue. We watched the Polar Express and then they opened up gifts which were Christmas PJ's. They couldn't figure out the clue, so I said it was somewhere we were going to go. We then told them, we had tickets to go on a Polar Express train ride and see Santa! They didn't believe me, I had to show them the confirmation email with the tickets! The ride is on the 21st and we can't wait!
