I am happy, though, that a kid that's seen as much of the world as he has at eight remains grounded in things like family, nature, good food and time spent playing games...<br /><br />I imagine that if he rebooted this perfect day he could mix up the ingredients and would have a few replacements, but they'd always be similar sorts of things.David Anthony Durhamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13885922955551669016noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12158536.post-82381521415497053732009-06-02T05:22:17.930-04:002009-06-02T05:22:17.930-04:00I must say, what a great day to dream!

So is Settlers of Catan. <br /><br />2) I agree with Cryrielle--what a gift to have Sage's "normal" days be so close to his "perfect" days.<br /><br />3) HOW do I get a child as insightful, joyful, and downright cool as Sage?? Or Maya, for that matter? What is your secret? Simon and I are terrified that karma is going to bite us in the ass when it comes time for child rearing ;)A.

By the way, if Sage's best day is so close to a normal one, he must be a really happy kid !Aléthiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01610649651469247531noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12158536.post-68893700929875501822009-05-31T22:39:59.609-04:002009-05-31T22:39:59.609-04:00That is an awesome plan for a day.

Ours was a rescue, as Jen is a vet, but he's cool nonetheless. <br /><br />Also, Carcassone - funtastic. We love the game. Other's that are fun - Ticket to Ride, Five Crowns, Bang!. I can give more recommendations - games are one of my "things". <br /><br />Anyway, what a great day. I wish mine were so easy to do. Oh wait, they are. I spend time with my daughter and wife, and watch scifi on TV. YAY!Corby Kennardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06891081576090200925noreply@blogger.com
