ever played this?:
if not, it's ok. You'll pick up quick.
basic game play is this:
one person reads a phrase that is written on a card
example:
"Plea sway tube ease heated"
and everyone tries to hear/ guess what is being said,
which is:
"Please wait to be seated"
We find ourselves playing a similar version of this game almost daily trying to understand Ivy.
She loves this game- in fact- she practically invented it.
I'm probably the best at it, although Asher is a pretty close second.
John? he's getting better:
