Playing

Owen has always been my one that loves to be with people. He (I?) had a really hard time when Josie went to school and wasn't around all day to play with. Some of our favorite days is when Jo is out of school and they can play all day. He doesn't like to play by himself and is always asking me if I will come play with him. Even if he plays something that is meant to be played by yourself, he's always coming and asking me to come and look at what he's doing. I love that he likes to be around me, but it is hard sometimes to get things done. Just recently, he's realized that Zoey is getting old enough to play with and have fun with. Usually I have to remind him that he can play with Zoey, too. Even then, he doesn't want her playing with his favorite toys (his Thomases) because she's too little and won't take care of them. The other day I couldn't find either one of them upstairs, so I went downstairs and this is what I found.

They were playing, WITH Thomases, and having fun. It was great for me to see. They were actually playing together, too. I loved it!! Owen had fun and Zoey felt like such a big girl.
