Madison tried out "Portals" today, and I'm making a note here: huge success. She enjoyed the creativity of the game, while Gladys of course amused the heck out of Mommy and Daddy. Seriously, this is one of the funnier video games out there - and it has a pretty awesome concept. The puzzle aspect of the game was challenging, but as with most games, the rewarding feeling of discovery is there as well.
Daddy was working for a bit today, but we also had time for a new board game, a different version of LIFE. This one was a Jedi's LIFE, something about 'the Path of a Jedi.' Madison and Daddy each got going on this one, and neither had the temptation to take the route of a Sith. The fear of disaapointing your Jedi master is too much to try and take shortcuts or steal from others. But maybe next time Daddy will try it out - at least it would make things interesting.
So yeah, there was ballet camp today again. Only a few more days of this. We have to decide about our dance schedule this fall, which is starting to look pretty crowded. The next level means more time dancing, which I'm not sure we have to give. But we'll see how it all unfolds. Fall is looking to be really busy with speech therapy, piano, ballet and everything else. We'll see how that all works out.
Madison knows her memory verse for this week, and we've been reading the devotional that Daddy wrote some time ago, the one about THE QUEST. She is very much into that, and it was great to hear her do that memory verse. So much so that Daddy got her ANOTHER small video game, the World of Kelflings extension that had to do with gingerbread men and candy mountains. It's a fun little game, one Madison was enjoying until around bedtime.
The rain was explosive today, intense heat building up throughout the day, giving way to tremendous storms rolling across the state. They cooled things off, providing that relief we were all so desperate for.
Next week, we head south. We're going on one last hoorah of a vacation soon, back to the Space Coast. We don't have any agenda, except rest and relaxation. We'll see if anything else happens as the week goes on, but we'll have to do quite a bit the next few days in order to get away. Madison is looking forward to it quite a bit!
