I don't know them very well. Just more that, they're going to hear and not understand. If *I* were hearing howling like that 15 years ago, no telling what I'd think or do.Happy Elf Mom (Christine)https://www.blogger.com/profile/15047347624037697311noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2212741399857110313.post-39437536856654340802008-06-05T13:32:00.000-05:002008-06-05T13:32:00.000-05:00Oh man, I thought my home life was abnormal! Ha h...Oh man, I thought my home life was abnormal! Ha ha! My son Chaz has Aspergers and man when he gets upset... he gets upset. So the other day I caught him chasing his brother with a butter knife. Okaayyy... Well, maybe we should take him to have big talk with pastor. Pastor has a way with him and Chaz loves him to death and really respects him. Kyle told me I was an unloving parent because I forgot to say "God Bless You" after he sneezed this morning. They all yell at me if I forget to pray over my food! Ryan told me when he gets older he's gonna move far away because I wouldn't give him more cereal even though he's had two bowls. My two year old Ivy at times calls me "mean mommy" because I had to give her a swat on her behind. Ha ha! The list goes on! Ashley may be 8 months old but she's already starting with her guilt trips! <BR/><BR/>Oh yeah, I had to play Nintendo at my neighbors house because my mom wouldn't by me one. When I turned 18, I kid you not, I went out and got one with the original Mario Bros game. It's still my favorite. I told Chaz when he's 18, he can go out and buy an XBox 360 if he wants. He tells me all the time how many more years he has left.Virginia Revoirhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12426979985073932937noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2212741399857110313.post-66967621836575223302008-06-05T05:50:00.000-05:002008-06-05T05:50:00.000-05:00Mrs. Z - did you tell them they're all yours???

He has his little temper tantrum and THROWS himself backwards onto our concrete floor. He doesn't seem to learn, either.<BR/><BR/>Daddy F - I wish I could say the same. Though back in the day when I was growing up we didn't have the Nintendo. It was Pong, and a big deal to own one!! So his stuff is just more modern.Happy Elf Mom (Christine)https://www.blogger.com/profile/15047347624037697311noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2212741399857110313.post-80331553859873497652008-06-05T00:17:00.000-05:002008-06-05T00:17:00.000-05:00I suppose to most kids, their parents are evil.

He's only four and has more toys than I had during my entire life.Kenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16857376251149003952noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2212741399857110313.post-58612136967445130602008-06-04T20:45:00.000-05:002008-06-04T20:45:00.000-05:00It sounds like G and Monkette are having the same ...It sounds like G and Monkette are having the same kind of days lately. She gave herself a black eye today from throwing a fit. (I think she senses the stress of what is going on) I keep waiting for someone to think that I hurt her with all the bruises she gives herself.Nicolehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15882915902110469241noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2212741399857110313.post-67597304780233497032008-06-04T16:21:00.000-05:002008-06-04T16:21:00.000-05:00Having one child that can go from OK to huge tears...Having one child that can go from OK to huge tears in 2.3 seconds and one that is sure we love everyone so much more and is willing to say some pretty mean things, I kinda (but not completely I am sure) understand.<BR/>I will be praying, because I know how things can get out of hand with nosy neighbors.<BR/>Hey we were turned in for running a daycare without a license.
