First Playdate with Mason's Library friends


I was a little nervous setting this up, but I love the kids who are in the library group with Mason. Actually there are about 80 kids and parents, but this group formed before the library remodel was finished. Mason did a good job of sharing after the first toy. The mom's and kids stayed about 1 1/2 hours and it was a lot of fun. I think it was great that Kai and Sora's older brother, Shin, was there as the other little kids liked following him around and letting him chase them.
I got out the chalk board, picnic table and folding table, there where play area's in the living room and family room. Having a lovely sunny day helped every ones spirits. Maki brought home-made rolls, which we all enjoyed.
I love being a grandma with time to really get involved with Mason's day to day life.
Before the kids came at 10:00 Mason wanted me to turn on the TV. He says, "TV", in a very compelling way. I said, "No, not now, your friends are coming over soon." He gives me the cow-eye pleading look, taps his arm and says, with his five fingers out-stretched, "Minutes?" He was negotiating a five minute time frame. Clever kid!
