Will Swap Kids For Mexican Blankets!!!

[Gilly Bean]

Hmm.. I was hoping that would get your attention. Hope it worked.

In any case, dealing with sick kids, grumpy hubby, and semi sick, half grumpy self, I have come to the conclusion that I should have raised kittens and sunflowers, and not kids.

It is now 10 to 2 am here, and my 5 year old daughter (who has been sick all day, and is now 'miraculously' better) and my 2 year old son (who layed down to sleep way to early, and thought of it as a nap when he got up at midnight) have been running up and down the halls screaming, reguardless of how much I tell them to be quiet because my hubby has to be up at 6 am for work. Now, the final thing that drove me to want to swap em.. They are playing in thier bedroom, and start fighting over who gets to jump from the top bunk to the floor first. Christian pulls Raegan's hair practically from her poor head, and she shoves him off the top bunk onto the floor. He gets right back up (kid has no fear, and can scale anything) and does it again, then points at himself, then the floor, which is his way of saying, Do it again, sissy!!!

I think I am gonna have to go with kittens and sunflowers in my next life.

Never a dull moment with kids, and they can teach you so much.lol

Love my boy more than anything...I'll probably have more sometime in the not so distant future. I relate well to kids.

The very scary thing is, I would still pick kids. In fact, adding number 3 in December. But nights like this.... -sighs- Kids screaming, my nerves are raw, my hubby keeps yelling at me for not keeping them quiet enough.

Just hate nights like this.

I'd raise children. I don't have any and don't see any in the near future but I still want them. We'd grow sunflowers together in the summer and play with kittens on the living room carpet on rainy days.

While I have no lil spawns of my own, I do have two cats, so I said kittens ^_^

How about a book on the couch? I used to love snuggling with my Mom or Dad while they read to me.

Wouldn't your wife have a problem with that?

I definately want kids but not now, when im financialy stable I intend to have either 2 or 3. My cousin just had a little boy Payton Michael, 8 weeks old and is the shit, for some reason I have a special gift with little children, doesn't matter if its girl or boy anywere from like 1 year old to like 8 or 9 they always seem to just get drawn to me, when I first got my job at Denny's I was coming in for training, the General Managers 5 year old daugther was there and I was sitting on the bench waiting for her to come out, the little girl (Felicia) ran up to me and threw her stuffed animal at me and giggled and held her arms for me to throw it back, I played with her for about 5 minutes till her mother came out and sort of stared at me then her. When she started training me, she told me that her daughter doesn't take to any male except for her father and grandfather, she was surprised to see how she actually came up to me and started playing and talking with me, ever since then I get to visit her once and a while and she goes crazy when I show up, that has happened to me god knows how many times and I haven't met a kid that won't come talk or visit or wave or smile or do something funny to me.

There I go "assuming" again and we all know what that does.

Hmmm...how old is your current? How many more do you want? How old are you? blah, blah, blah...the application process is quite extensive! I'm quite the catch. *grin*

I do have a mexican blanket you can have if you really want one It's blank/pink/white.

 

[Starfish]

I would love to have kids, but am not 'allowed' by my doctors. That is cool though, because I am not able to financially handle that responsibility right now.

So I said Sunflowers. Most people here know that I am a Horticulturalist. I am also a pet nut, with my five kitties, my dog, and my fish. I was torn on my vote because of this, but I don't want anymore cats right now.

 

[Gilly Bean]

Thank you for the offer, PB, I preciate it


Night has gotten a whole lot better now that one kid is in bed, and the other is calmed down, and watching.. umm... I don't know what the hell it is, but it's on cartoon netwrok, so it can't be all that bad. Can it? Please reasurre me on thiS!!!!


Gilly Bean, who will hit 100 tonight, at this rate!

I have no children but I do have 2 cats so the obvious answer was kittens.

 

[Samuari]

Have four girls mostly raised youngest still in high school, and one still in college, But I remember those nights, you know they are some of the most vivid memories that I have of thier childhood. Enjoy them, while you can.

Oh you needed at least a fourth option: all of the above.

Hey Guy! If she doesn't take ya up on the offer I will

I turned 31 on 8/20 (Leos are the awesomest!)

I have always wanted a son. Recently, after babysitting my best friend's 9mo. son, I decided the only way I'd get one was to find me a package deal

Anyway... PB.... fair game girlie! hehe
