And how do they imagine that they themselves came about?? Brought by the
stork?? Immaculate conception?? Grew up in the cabbage pad (or worse
yet, in the corn field...)?? Or maybe sex is off-limits to people over a
certain age??




Oh, they know we had sex to get them, they just don't want to think
about us old people "doin' it." I think it's anyone having sex over the
age of 30-40.

LOL, you're a year younger than Rob, my hubby. I don't consider him a
baby either. He just acts young, which is a big advantage when you're
up against the ropes. Rob is quite an awesome guy. I was telling the
kids last night about how the neighborhood kids at Ft Campbell would
come over and ask if my "Daddy could come out and play." He taught
them how to fly kites, engaged them in water fights, took them bug
hunting, blow bubbles for them to stomp on, and was pretty decent
about any reasonable play requests. Most of the other daddies wanted
to stay inside and watch sports rather than play with their kids. I
feel sorry for them.


Me, too....that's wonderful, what lucky kids you have, and what a lucky wife
you are! `

Well as I'm not under 35 you can't classify me as a baby!!
Being born in June '63 makes me 40... at least on paper...

Way to go Rob!

Ok, my body has to get older, thats one of those things. But you have
permission to shoot me deader than dead if I ever start thinking or acting
old!

Somehow, with Joel around, I don't think I'm in any mortal danger yet. The
lump will probably grow up saying "But Muuuuuuum, its *my* go on the
swing/for the toy, geroff!".

Of course I will cackle evilly, as all good Horrid Mothers do.....

least when they are teenagers) :-)

I mean sure, ok, they had to like, have sex to, like, reproduce and all,
but thats not anything like actually doing it like *we* do.


Well, I know that my parents did it 3 times - one for me, and one for
each of my two sisters.

I'm one of the few who can honestly say that I'm not sure if my parents ever
'did it'. I'm adopted and mom has this really baaaaad attitude about sex.
So you see, we were the generation that invented sex. Of course, my kids
will believe that they did when they get there, too.

Don't wait until they're in their teens, Vicky. Start them off early.
When the kids were little, and would act up in stores (you know,
touching the produce, squabbling with their sibs that sort of thing,
never really bad), I'd tell them that A) I was going to tell their
mommy
on them, or B) to go back to their real parents as none of my kids
would ever act like that. Each statement would prompt a chorus of
"But you
are our mommy." By the time we'd finished arguing it out, we were all
laughing and whatever behavior I didn't like was forgotten. My kids
are bright, polite, and going to be shelling out a fortune in Psych
bills.
I always figured that if I was going to be blamed for everything that
ever happened to them, I might as well earn it.


LOL....what a brilliant idea!!! Sounds to me like your kids would be the
least likely candidates for therapy I know; being raised with a sense of
humor goes a long way....

Laku loves that!! I don't know how to fly a kite tho, not a real
kite,
only the cheapo version we used to fly as kids - we tied a few bright
plastic bags at intervals on a long piece of string and pulled the
whole contraption around on a windy day...


That's wonderful! Anyway, they say age is only a matter of mind: if you
don't mind, it doesn't matter! I may grow up a little more here and there,
but I see no reason to ever grow old....

With Rob, it's Cadbury creme eggs. With Christmas, he's more excited
about coming up with a special present for one of us than what he can
get. I'm the one who insists on decorating the house, tree, front
porch, mailbox, and anything else I can think of. You really need to
learn how to fly kites. Rob taught me, and it is a family tradition now
to take a kite per person to Cape Hatteras where the winds are always
good for flying stuff. We also get them out to play frisbee, water
fight, and whatever else we can think of. I don't think we'll ever grow
up. It's too boring.

Well if we ever get around to coming to your neck of the woods, you can
teach me to fly a kite, OK?

Christine, if you ever make it to North Carolina, I'd be proud to help
Rob teach you how to fly kites. Rob is the pro at flying them, I've
only flown one or two kites. It's fun, exciting and a little stressful
as the kits feels like its going to get away when it gets up really
high.
