For the next week we will have a #4 at the house. #4 is a very good friend of #1 & #2 from our old neighborhood. #1 & #2 were in Cub Scouts with #4 for several years. At the old house I think there were very few weekends throughout the year that #4 did not stay at least one night with us, or one/both of the boys with him.
I am hoping by having #4 here and bringing the in house children to an even number will help aleviate some of the squabbles the 3 seem to get into when left without outside sources to play with. It has always worked in the past, so this week should be more smooth than it has been recently.
