I also learned to have the bath water high enough so that it wasn't a 'floating/bobbing" issue. lol I tried never to shame them though.
Then you have the issues of farting, burping, etc. And I don't just mean the boys. lol |
I learned how to listen....I mean Really listen. Because everything they say is important to them.
I remember when the oldest was about 4. she walked up to her mom with a serious look on her face & said "Mom we need to talk...I have a problem..." I don't remember what the problem was....but it was so darn cute & in my head I was thinkin ur 4 what problems could u have? lol |

Tcountry that is cute :) I know they seem like it is life or death and they are so serious, mine makes me laugh daily she pops off with some of the funniest stuff |
I just fond this thread and I love it.
My two kids teach me so much every day... They absorb everything... Sometimes its hard for me to connect because they love so many thing I never really got into though, like... video games. I don't DO video games, but I gave in and bought them a Wii and I listen when they tell me about their monsters and their triumphs. I was always a bit too grown up for a little kid. My daughter is like me, but my son is all kid, all the time. Yesterday, my 8 year old told me what shes going to be when she grows up. A rockstar she says, but only at night. A teacher during the day. And she will have a husband. He will be a teacher too to help the kids with homework while shes busy being a rockstar. But, she will take the weekends off to be with her kids. I never had it planned out like that.... |

Oh yea.... mother nature time was an awesome time for us. I had taken the time to talk to my daughter, Kassy, about everything that might happen and even had explained that it was like her right of passage. we would celebrate her starting to become a young woman. Opal are to be gifted and we promised her an opal when the time should arrive. :cheer: Cruel and I pulled into the drive and Kassy came running in a mad dash, "It's time! She's here. Do I get my opal now?" Cruel and I could just chuckle. We scooped up the kids and went out to dinner. Our son was wondering why all of a sudden Kassy was ear to ear smiles and we were going out to eat. Cruel drove with Caleb and met Kassy and I that way Kassy and I could go to the store for hygiene products. It wouldn't be until the next couple months that she started cramping and wanted to give me the ring back. :giggle: Now a days she warns us all by saying "my uterus is falling out just let me be". :crybaby: Now wait until the time that they may not know how to use tampons. Oh joy. Kassy had a friend that tried to put one in her butt. I felt so sorry for her. Quote:

I have found that kids will talk so much when you get down on their level or take the time to play their game or listen to a song or two of their music. We also have this thing at our house where everyone goes around the table and says a good and a bad thing or 2 good things of their day. At first they resisted and then it got to the point if we skipped it - they let us know. ;) BTW Tell your daughter she's already a rock star!! |

when mine was 3 her fave song was freebird and she would sit back there and say faster go faster,in a car,and start belting "I cant change" freakin 3 like she knew just what it meant and could relate lmao I love kids :) |
Cruel has been a trooper - especially for having no kids and probably never wanting any.
We joke a lot about how we met in the SC thread over at the dash site. I think cruel was looking for ummm.... well something less than me and 5 kids. I remember... Cruel: Do you have any kids? Me: Are you sitting down? Cruel: Yes, why? Me: I have 5. Cruel: You have 5 what? Me: 5 kids. Cruel: *laughing hysterically* You do not, be serious. Me: I am. Cruel: ::: silence ::: Me: You should run away. Cruel: huh? Me: Really. You should run away. Run FAST! Just when you think you've run far enough away - run faster and further! Well, as you can see we've made it so far. I have stories about Cruel and I learning this parenting together too. LOL |

Ty. I will pass it along. I am sure you're right some days. I hope you do find someone that compliments your family and can fit in nicely. I look forward to sharing more stories as time goes on. May I ask do your son, daughter, or both - do they refer to you as mom? |
So... my son lit a box on fire today on our front porch. He found a lighter someone had left out there and lit a candle, then held the flame to the side of the box...
... As soon as i walked out to check on him he dropped the candle under a chair, thank the Gods it went out as he dropped it. After his time out (rather lengthy) I asked him if he understood why it was such a big deal... Him: I could have hurt myself Me: you could have burned down the house Him: oh... but the house was bigger then the fire... LOL... if I couldn't find humor in all the little things, I would never make it. |
