Have you ever, well I should say do you often, do goofy stuff just for the fun of it. Think about that. Welll sometimes you just have to, at least that's what I think. Now I know you're thinking that this concept goes against my Type A, organizer personality. But I think my children would tell you that I've got some of this in my blood. (I think it's a little of my grandad Axthle in me really.)
When I think back on the years as my children
were at home, we've got lots to smile about! Just watching them grow up makes me smile really, but I'm talking about lots of little things and inside jokes.
Our evenings of making dinner together and then sitting at the table enjoying it, playing games and enjoying eachother's company, brought out the silliest part of all of us. Some of my favorites include making up names for each other- Cheif Shitting Bull and Nubs the hit man are two to note. Among the names came moments of dreaming too! Our dear son when asked if he could live anywhere in the world, chose "the living room"- now that's a great example of just how small a teen's world really is. Explaining the facts of life was something we thought we did- well, but after our daughter explained "artificial insalmonation" to us, we realized we had a way to go. There are lots more good times to share, but today I'll stop right there.
