Plays well with others

It's something I hope that will be said about the children, and this week they're practicing. Iain and Thomas have been playing all sorts of pretend things together. This morning they were suited up in makeshift army gear, on a mission.

Thomas said they were looking for someone. 'He killed one of our best soldiers, and now we have a mystery to solve. We have to find him.'

Pretty soon, they were all outside, and Lewis was watching a documentary about the Russian front in WWII. And they didn't come back in until they were tired of playing--no squabbling or bickering.

If not peace on earth, at least we've seen peace in our backyard.
