Kids!

What can I say - sometimes they drive me crazy!

Here's a picture of Peter avoiding unloading the dishwasher.

Someone had recommended How To Speak Dragonese as a great book for boys around age 8, so I got it for Peter. It must be good because he's been glued to it ever since. Being the reader that I am, I really couldn't fault him for choosing a book over his chores (but I still made him unload the dishwasher once he finished a chapter).

And now it's Miss Em's turn. Notice her pink shoes sitting in front of the shoe rack, instead of on it. Do you see the wide open space that would have fit her shoes just perfectly? 

We have tried and tried, but have been unsuccessful in teaching Emily the concept of putting her shoes on the shoe rack. What ya gonna do?

Kids - can't live with them. 

Can't kill them without going to jail for a very long time!
