****If I tell my oldest boy (10) to stand up, he can't just stand, he leaps up, spins around two or three times, waves his arms around, and levitates across the room. Drives me insane! ****


Yes, thank you! You have described my son to a 't'.....everything he does is like this!

Whether it's brushing his teeth (toothpaste and water everywhere), getting dressed(the dirty clothes go flying around the room), walking down the hall (he runs and then slides into the kitchen on his knees), eating dinner (you can *always* tell which place was his, from all the food particles around his plate and on the floor beneath). OH, and he's loud too!!

He drives me batty, but he can also be so delightful and very sweet....boys are really complex and that has surprised me.

Well I've gotta get the wild thing ready for swim class. Will check in later this afternoon! Ya'll have a great day.

I think our boys are twins separated at birth! Billy has to sit in the chair with no back, because (near as I can tell from the conflicting reports ...) he TWITCHED the back to smithereens from across the room.

He's a wonderful boy, really, just needs about 10 hours a day of farm work!
