Tired kids!

Grace and Tyler fell asleep watching the X-Men movie after dinner tonight. Tyler's allergies have been acting up and I think that Grace has been playing way too hard the past few days...her and Ava have been inseparable and with the nice weather she's been outside almost all the time. She got up briefly to get her pj's on, then crawled on the bench in my room and fell asleep again. The battery on my camera died but I got a pic with my cell phone:
Ben played basketball for awhile after school and then watched a movie on Tyler's laptop. He's been doing really well with his new medicine! His friend Steven is walking home from school with him tomorrow.
Matt on the other hand is grounded for quite possibly the rest of his life. He did not call me after school to let me know where he was going. I figured he went to JC's cafe, a teen hangout spot at our church. But that closes at 5:00 and by the time 7:30 rolled around we were getting a little worried. I drove around town looking for him, then Rich drove around looking for him. We called his friend Hunter's cell phone and home phone...no answer. At 7:45 he calls using Hunter's cell phone (WHY couldn't he have done this at 3:00 when school got out??!!). I use 5 words: Dad's coming to get you. Needless to say he went straight to his room and he will be grounded indefinitely. He is the smartest kid, with the least common sense of any of the children. His excuse is "well, I don't have a cell phone so I can't call you". WHAT? #1, his friend Hunter who he is always with has a cell phone, and #2, how in the world did any kid survive in the 70's and 80's without cell phones?
