November 10, 2013 – Visiting at Ryan and Jon’s house

Since we haven’t seen Nathan and Sam in a few weeks since we’ve been away in Utah, we head over to Palo Alto for a visit. Jonathan makes a nice brunch of bagels and lox. Nathan and Sam spend some time playing with a box and then the three of us have a fun collaborative drawing session. First Sam and I draw a picture of Daddy in his running attire. I add a stop sign. Sam adds space ships. Then Sam, Nathan and I draw Nathan in his pajamas who somehow morphs into a Storm Trooper, a scary clawed creature and another creature who is named King of the Imps. These are all pretty violent characters. What is it with little boys? They seem to spend a lot of imagination time sorting out the good guys and the bad guys.
