Kids always doing stuff,

Sometimes I wonder...why won't mine even try.  It is as if they don't see the point of school.  Of course as my mother would testify, "they are doing exactly what i did."

As a child, I was a classic under achiever.  I never saw the point in doing something that didn't capture my attention.  While I enjoyed school, I didn't enjoy the learning part.  It was the people I wanted to be around.  Yes, even though I was the quiet, shy kid who got picked on.

Now, as a parent, I see the same qualities that I possessed as a child in my kids.  So naturally, kits are  infuriatingly frustrating.

On to more fun...

My oldest is reminding me of imaginative play time.  She pulls out toys and spends hours talking to herself in different voices.   While the youngest is finding hiding places inside cabnets (his favorite being under the tv) and also talking to himself in funny voices.  So of course I have a house full of kids who like to talk to themselves.  But why would that be strange?  I talk to myself all the time, heck I even hear myself answer.

The only normal ones on the house are the dogs, but that's pushing it.  ;-p
