Dinner Date

Tonight we went to the Silver Diner with the family of a boy in Ava's class at school. It was once again Family Fun Night, with music and coloring activities to occupy the kids when they were not wolfing down their food. Over the year, Jackson and Ava have become good friends. Additionally, they have decided they love each other and are going to get married. While I don't give this talk much attention, Ava and I have discussed at length that she can be friends with boys now, and marriage will come much later. Still, it is fun to see how sweet these two are to each other - Jackson is very much Ava's protector, and Ava includes Jackson in all things. Added bonus to the night: the kids were so busy dancing and coloring, the adults actually had some uninterrupted conversation! Good food and great company made for a fantastic evening. And hey, if these two kiddos do end up marrying  each other (and even if they don't), we are compiling memories to torture them with later ;-)
