Ivan’s invited his best friend over to play today.

It is 27 minutes until Ivan’s first playdate.
He keeps checking his watch and telling me an updated count of how many minutes it is until the playdate.
He is so excited.
We invited J from his Kindergarten class to play at our house.

Ivan proudly announces,
“I have a schedule for my playdate
FIRST Balloony Bounce
THEN Snowball Fight
THEN Hot Chocolate
THEN Play Inside”

All agenda items WERE accomplished.
J declared it “the best play date”
Ivan agreed but did feel the need mention it was his first play date, so it had to be the best.

This photo looks like Ivan watching the year’s first snow, but he has checked his watch and it is noon and he is watching for J to come. Luckily, dad arrived with J on time.

Here is the game of Balloony Bounce in the living room.

And the Snowball Fight. I was the villain for the latter half and this involved three children pelting me with snow. Snow boy, Icicle and Super Ivan definitely defeated me with their winter powers.
