So, I have a confession....maybe more of a pet peeve I must share. 
I really don't like it when people, and I probably don't mean you, think they are so smart. You know, the people... they just act like when their kids do things they are geniuses, and they (as smart adults) should get paid to breathe? And the fact that they are even talking to you is a favor to you, because truly they could have a much more intelligent conversation with someone else?
I don't know why, but I just had to share....
Onto other things...
We have been trying to play our way into spring- or maybe trying to convince spring to come. The boys got tennis rackets for Christmas so the past two days we have been "tennissing" as Wyatt calls it. Not to be confused with Tennessee-ing.
The other life theme we have been discussing with the kids lately, is that even adults make mistakes, sometimes lie, let people down, say mean things, etc. EXCEPT, when adults do it, they usually get into a lot more trouble. So while you are a kid, you should learn generally to be a good person, so you don't loose your family, your job or end up in jail. Ahhh... if we'd only learn.

Ah yes! If only we'd learn. My little sister could tell you from the time she was five that adults were the worst liers. Ofcourse a little forgivness goes along way when dealing with other's faults.

I love tennis. I hope my boys will too! And thanks for the life lessons... I'm still learning the hard way...
