Watching the Storm

I hope very much to have children who are not afraid of storms. So, when one is coming in I try to make a big deal about listening for the thunder & watching for lightning (at a safe distance, of course). Sydney, really couldn't care less about my game. Which is good because it means that she isn't afraid of the storm, but it doesn't give me someone to sit & watch with either. So the other day when we were getting some good rain, I tried to encourage Jason to watch with me. He at least showed signs of wanting to watch out the window which of course then got Sydney interested too.

Maybe kids learn to play one parent off of the other from us using one kid to play off the other kid. Hmmm.
