Ok, as any other mom out there knows….some of the best toys for our kids are not things we buy in the stores. There is the famous “box”, wooden spoons, or even pots and pans. Our kids find the craziest things to play with sometimes. The other day Luke and our baby girl proved this point yet again.
This day they fought over a pillow….yes a pillow. Not just any pillow either, but one of those couch pillows. This one came with our couch and so it matches the upholstery of the couch. Anyway…Luke has showed interest in wrestling with one of these two pillows for the last six months or so. He will often get one and attack it by trying to bite it or roll around with it on the floor. The funny part is that this isn’t a small pillow; it is probably at least 18 inches square. So when Luke is trying to wrestle this pillow he doesn’t always win. Often the pillow is too heavy or awkward for him to handle for long.
Well the other day our baby girl decided she wanted to play with one of these pillows too. So she gets it and takes off, and when I see her I can’t see her face or her upper body…so it looks like a walking pillow coming at me! It was pretty funny.
Then Luke comes over and gets in on the action. After all, playing with the pillow was his idea first…right? So Luke tries to take the pillow away from his sister….and a pillow fight of sorts breaks out. What was nice was that instead of crying when one sibling took the pillow from the other, both kids laughed instead. It was a fun time!
