Just like that unspoken thought.<BR/><BR/>I mean, I'm a grown up and a responsible and mature adult when I have to be and really, as a kid and teenager, I was lots more mature than other kids my age for the most part. But part of me either never grew up or I'm just still in touch with that obnoxious younger side of me whereas most other people my age have forgotten that side, or something. I don't know how you moms do it sometimes. I have been around moms of teenagers or on the other end of the phone listening to some deal they're having with their kids and I think I couldn't possibly keep a straight face thru all that. Heh.<BR/><BR/>Though I guess it stands to reason why my friends' kids and like-aged other kids will talk to and hang out with me when they will barely speak to their own parents. I expect a lot of your kids' friends feel comfortable with you the same.<BR/><BR/>On another note, when I was younger and thought I wanted to have a whole bunch of kids, I always thought if I had a choice and had to choose all boys or all girls, I'd rather have a bunch of boys. Which was probably pretty dumb. Then again, Edge comes from a family of four boys and no girls, and though none were saints, all of them were pleasant, talkative, outgoing, and basically nice guys as youths. But I'm pretty sure they were an exception to the general rule.<BR/><BR/>Whoops, didn't mean to talk your blog off there. Even tho you say you're not a mommy blogger, you are the kind of Mom I think I would probably be, so hey, you're an inspiration that way. ;)Lynnsterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05417014594378784447noreply@blogger.com
