Last night at bedtime Nathan was snuggling with me in my bed. He started to tell me, "I'm scared of..." but then said, "nothing." He doesn't like to talk about feelings. I tried to get him to tell me what he was going to say but he wouldn't. So I said, "let's play a game. We'll take turns telling what we're scared of." Then Alex and Daddy came in and we all played the game. We went around the circle a few times, each saying things we're scared of. Mostly the boys are afraid of the dark.
Then Alex said, "now let's tell about our hopes and dreams." So we went around the circle a few times telling about our hopes and dreams. One of Alex's dreams is to have wings and talons to be able to fly and fight. One of Nathan's dreams is to do pottery with clay on a pottery wheel and make a bowl, and also to see what a chilidog tastes like.
It was a fun game.
