Fort Building

What is it with children and forts? Taking all the pillows and blankets from every bed and couch our kids know how to create a mess in minutes. Yesterday afternoon they spent some time building what they called Crystal Cave Even making a spot for Jack. Later they asked if they could sleep there. Since things like this are what childhood is all about, (and it's summer vacation) they were allowed - though disappointed that Jack had to sleep in his crib. Things managed to fall apart quite a bit before they actually fell asleep, but when we went to check on things what we found made us smile. See the entries below.
