September 12

When we go to Red Tractor, the kids always get coloring sheets to help fill the dreaded "waiting void." I love seeing what they come up with. For a while, Brady only wanted to draw ninjas (or to have someone else draw them). Abby often likes turning the pre-printed scene into something entirely unique. And Isaac, oddly enough, frequently uses the blank space to practice math facts. But today, he went in an entirely different direction.

He drew a racetrack and then asked us who should compete. Brady was quick with a response: Lightning McQueen, Chick Hicks, and The King. Isaac complied, and soon enough, the three cars with faces were racing in suspended animation along his loop.

I love that "Cars" is still part of our daily life. Hearing the Little Boys talk about those characters makes Logan feel a little less far away.
