Between my cough of death and the Captain's bout of middle-of-the-night-puking, we opted to stay home from church and not share germs today. But being home all day on a Sunday is tricky. My kids get bored, and a lot of their usual boredom cures just aren't
appropriate for the Sabbath. (You know, watching a gazillion episodes of Blues Clues, racing up and down halls hollering, jumping off of furniture...) So poor Sir O, who was only half-way sick, needed us to come up with something for him to do today.
I love it when Mr Renn is home when these sort of conundrums come up. Here's what they came up with.
It's a model of the
Bountiful Temple, where we were married.
(disclosure: my child dressed himself today, and had bedhead until 7:30pm I'm too sick to care)
Any other ideas for Sabbath keeping with small kids?

That's an awesome idea! We have a hard time coming up with Sabbath-appropriate activities for our kids, too. Play dough or Gak is usually good around here.
aw shucks. Now I just like you guys even more. :)
Someone has some mad play dough skills! I'm impressed!
