As SOON as school got out, M started asking about the tree fort. We had some other projects this summer, and it's amazing how FAST the summer goes by. So, while the kids were with their dad last weekend, Rob got to work building them a fort.
Personally, I think he wants one for himself so he can run away and escape us all! :D
We didn't tell them about the fort when I picked them up, we waited for them to find it. It took a little while. M went out and sat on the swing and swung for a bit. Then he stopped. And stared. For awhile! We hid. And chuckled. He came RUNNING to us and asking if it was ok to go up there. Then he just sat in it for a bit.
Finally he went and told his sister, and she came and played too. The fort is a HUGE hit with the neighbor kids, I think they all sat in it ALL day on Monday. We're hoping to do some additions and other levels - we'll see how it goes.
