Re: If Spring Break is bad......how will I cope with 10 weeks of summer?
You know what they say...........the first 38 years of parenthood are the worst...........
..............after then it gets a little better but trouble is you don't notice it because of the alcohol intake...... .....I have 5 kids 21, 18, 14, 8, 4 .......they are eventually falling off the other end of the conveyer belt !!!!! |

Between the puppy getting remarkably random in her deposits and us getting totally out of sync with her going outside. The kids are doing remarkably daft things, even for them! Like stacking up glasses to make towers.....and I get there just before the 2 foot tall tower is spotted by the 20 month old demolition expert................... One minute they play so nicely, then the next its like a rugby scrum with the puppy and the 20 month old somewhere in the middle. I want a Tazer gun, a cattle prod - something! I resort to afternoon baths, lots of toys, bubbles and towels. When is it my turn? Oh! the noise! The bickering! The *why is my sock wet?* as they have walked all the way over the room to show you, wet footprints everywhere! The door bell goes, I am in no mood to make *nice*, and those kids like a herd run towards the door to see who it is.............can I not ignore the door even?? I am ready for a dark room and a mudslide of the Vodka kind................. |

Both ends of it here a 7 year old and then young adults so we just send the 7 year old to wake up the older brothers and sister ;) works like a charm :rofl:
Parents revenge! I like it :thumbsup:. I would even consider fathering another child :eek: if and only if I were convinced that our 20 and 18 year old would stick around to be pestered. :rofl: |

I can't wait for this when my two hit that 'can't-wake-up' teenager status. I'm going to bounce into their rooms at 6.15, jump on their beds and poke them with my elbows and cold feet. I'm going to then say repeatedly "Is it time to get up yet? Is it time to get up yet?" while playing with the clock radio, opening the curtains and rattling a large box of lego bits :rofl::rofl:
