I have a little hope, a small light at the end of the tunnel...

Zack had his BFF Sal over today along with Sal's brothers and this is what I caught them doing....

They were doing CRAFTS!!!  Actually, they were building boats out of paper, toothpicks and tape.  Then they were going to float them in the tub and see whose was better at floating a quarter or something like that. I was a little fuzzy on the details, but  I was just so thrilled they weren't playing Xbox or MineCraft (otherwise known as MineCrap) on the computer.  They were actually using their brains!  Maybe there is hope that their brains haven't rotted in their heads and dribbled out of their ears!
