Lights out

Last night we had a neighborhood-wide power outage. Tessa was already in bed, but Isaac was in the middle of his bath when all the power went out. He kept insisting that we turn the lights back on - he didn't understand until he got out of the bath and tried the light switch for himself. We got to read him books and tuck him in bed by candles and flashlights. John and I played a game of Scrabble by candle light and the power came back on halfway through the game. Other than being glad that the heat was also back on, I was a little sad to blow out the candles, it was kind of nice!
