Freestone and Jake are hard workers, so when they've exhausted all the possibilities at our house, they head to Coco's to "work in their office." That means organizing paper clips and collecting pennies in the desk Coco set up for them. They take their work, as well as their play, very seriously. Last time they went to Coco's house, she said to them, "OK, boys, try not to make such a big mess this time. Last time, you got out every toy in the house and spread them all over every inch of the basement. I don't even know how you did it."
Freestone proudly replied, "We used teamwork!" They have used teamwork to get into quite a bit of trouble in their lives. I'm just glad most of the trouble is a direct result of their vibrant imaginations. When you're a super-fighter-space-alien, normal human rules don't apply. The rest of us just have to understand that! We are in the midst of greatness, people.

I love it! Teamwork! Bet they leaned that cooperating from Seseame Street right?
How do they all make messes sooo fast anyway????
It is amazing what boys can do when they set their minds to it! :)
Teamwork says it all. Free was so proud of his work. It is so wonderful to view life through a child's lenses!
Oh, I am reading Train to Potevka. It is an interesting insight into life of a Russian worker. Almost done with all your books! I'll get them to you soon...greenhouse has been busy!
It is amazing to me what those two come up with when they put their heads together.
I'm kind of scared about what happens when they get into High School...
