playground

so tonight i took pottery to a camp ground and david came along with our friend and they played on the really big playground. i just heard this story from david sorry its not first hand but it was so funny i had to share. they were waiting patiently for the big slide while two french canadian boys were playing and david kindly asked them "ok boys go down so the little girl can go" the just blankly stared at him. so he asked them nicely again, "ok go down boys so the little girl can go." they still just stared at him. finally he put on his mean face and harshly shouted "get off the slide" and pointed where they needed to go. (he says north) they took off down the slide and ran away. as they were sliding down david nicely said "merci". he has already become quite the over protective father. the fact that she was soaked from playing in the lake and i thought was pee also made me laugh. we are having a good time even though its hard we are also setting boundaries. please continue to pray for us as we continue to figure out this whole parenting thing.
