Battleship and Escort Cars...

Last night, on the eve of his 8th birthday, Malakai learned how to play Battleship. Squeals of laughter could be heard every time he hit one of Daddy's ships. E7....hit! I relived some of my childhood memories of playing this game with my older brother many a time. So, today we are celebrating Malakai's birthday the best way an 8-year old boy could. With an excused educational absence from school. Ahem...I agreed to be Eric's escort car today for his oversize load of gazebos. Malakai is going to be in the truck with Eric on his walkie talkie and I am going to be in the van with the other three kiddos. Isaac will be on our walkie talkie. Forecast is 100% rain. Just keep smiling, ya'll. And pray for grace and a wonderful birthday for Malakai!!
