Children's Day? Boys' Day? Happy Day!

I have always associated May 5th with Boys' Day, but I guess it's actually Children's Day.  I decided to look it up on the internet and Wikipedia says it is "a day set aside to respect children's personalities and to celebrate their happiness".

Well, our boys being boys went outside after dinner and used their water squirters to see whose would shoot farther.

And then everyone wanted to pose for the camera.  Celebrate those personalities!

And if today is about celebrating children's happiness, then we definitely have a lot to celebrate.

Before the kids go to sleep, we often ask them about the best part of their day... and tonight, instead of asking, I told Jason that my best part of the day was this morning when, without prompting, Jason told us that his two best hobbies are snuggling and touching ears (he has a fascination with earlobes).  He then proceeded to ask everyone about their two best hobbies... Happy Children's Day indeed.
