I'm sitting on the floor of the gym.

It's family reading night, and I'm hosting the word game room.

No, Twister doesn't have words.  I planned to tape word card to the dots,

But figuring out two-step directions has proven hard enough.

Some little brothers and sisters help me spin.  They smile and giggle.

Daughter Allison redirects the kids jumping hopscotch and balancing on foam beams.

I'm wish some parents would put down their phones and engage with us. <sigh>

A few jump rope or help their kids to play.  Others stay on the sidelines.

I wave, smile, and share compliments of their children's enthusiasm.

I don't mind sitting on the floor of the gym.

  2. Oh, your ending is so sweet. I love how you maintained an equal rhythm by interspersing the Twister commands. The parents on the phone, and on the sidelines, disengaged saddens me as well. I am reassured when you add, " wave, smile, and share compliments of their children's enthusiasm." Thanks for sharing!
