Dan has decided to take out one of our kids each month as a 'dad's night out'... In a family with seven kids, a night out alone with a parent is so rare.... so, this month, it was Gus' turn. They went to Spelunkers ( the kids' favorite restaurant) and then to the arcade. So, Gus comes home in a triumphal state (being able to show his brothers all he has done, and the 'goods' he has acquired... ). Unbeknownst to all, even Gus who 'won' it, Gus brings home a prize that all would covet... the woopie cushion... well, for the rest of the evening, all of my boys who normally would be fighting non-stop, are rallying together around the 'blessed woopie'. They all think it is absolutely hilarious and can't stop using it..................... aaaah, the price we pay for peace... :)

Oh, that's cool! So I have to ask, did andrew "influence" Dan in that? The way you all are doing it sounds pretty neat too.
Yes, I think he did!! Thanks for that tip, because the kids really benefit from that one on one time!!
