The girls have been asking to build a fort for a couple of days. For our part-family FHE tonight I asked Allie and Caden to help the girls build a fort (I was cleaning the kitchen, Parker was playing basketball outside and Bob was working late.) The big kids were acting like HGTV stars in the process. "Do you want high ceilings or more space?" "That's a load bearing wall. If we rip that down, the whole thing will fall down and we won't have any profit on this house." "Girls, we're going to give you an open-concept kitchen."
Allie told Sage that the addition they were working on was going to be expensive. With a worried look Sage asked, "How much? Am I going to have to pay for it?"
"Yes. It's going to be 50 dollars," responded Allie.
Sage ran upstairs and returned with a stack of fake money to pay for her new house.
Allie lead them through a reveal when they were done.
They had a great time together and built an impressive fort. My heart was happy seeing them play and be creative together. Those big kids of mine had some pretty clever comments and tie-ins with all the HGTV shows we watch!
