Like father, like son!!!! It's said that when we have kids of our own, we get what our parents had, US!! Temperaments, personalities, the whole bundle of wax!! Well, Mitch, my son, and his son Alex, are a perfect example of this! Alex's teacher says he figgets too much, talks out of turn, and on and on. Mitch told the teacher he really didn't think they would ever be able to curb this behavior, since that's what his mother had heard about him and he never stopped.
Well, let me tell you, that's not all I heard. I was told, when he's bored, he talks to the stuffed owl in the back of the room. I told them I really saw no problem with that, UNLESS, the owl talked back!! (Not a teacher's favorite parent here!!)
Ahhhhhh, children, such a blessing!!!! And they are, I'm not only amazed mine made it to adulthood, but I'm amazed I survived!! At one point, I had 5 teens, YES I SAID 5 TEENS, 13 to 19 years old.
Oh man, those were the days!! I truly miss those days, but I truly am glad they are over (with fond memories, of course)
With my 5 kids and my honey's 3, come 21, yes, 21 grandbabies, ages 6 months up to 15 years.
Everyone a blessing!!
