Matt and the boys have a new Monday ritual of going to the library together. Liam has quite a long list of suggested books to read before kindergarten, and it has been a really great guide to new books.
One of the things the boys like best is picking out a video. At first, they discovered the DK Eyewitness series, and blew through dinosaurs, the solar system, sharks, and volcanos quite obsessively. Liam announced one day that "nightmares can transform into dreams", apparently something he learned from the volcano video. He also is quite fascinated by the concept of lava.
Now they have moved on to the "The Way Things Work" series. They have watched levers, pulleys, and pressure in previous weeks, and this week Liam picked out "Belts and Gears" and Finn picked out "Friction". Matt says he tried to steer them toward someting else, but they wanted to learn about the way things work. I guess you never know what will peak their interest. Perhaps they make educational videos about how to clean up your toys?

The apple doesn't fall far from the tree, does it?
Do you mean the fact that I didn't clean up my toys??
