We drove into town, (only because Jenna lost a tooth and the tooth fairy didn't have any dollars. This wouldn't do.) I had some movies I needed to return to the redbox anyways and was low on a some household needs, such as TP. Not a good thing to run out of, Im sure you all understand how crappy it is to run out of it. LITERALLY! I made the little ones happy, the redbox had the new Hannah Montana movie and I rented it after returning the others. I now have the needed dollars for the tooth fairy. Whew close call! I know its a silly thing but why take away a kids dreams and fantasies so early in life? There will be plenty of time for disappointment and reality much later. The girls were jabbering in my truck beside me as I drove back from town talking about shooting stars and wishing upon them. Makenna's wish (the 4 yr old) is for fish sticks that dont have to be cooked. I had to scratch my head on this one... but hey it was her wish, the kid loves fish sticks! I often wish I could still have the dreams and innocence of a child. I rememeber having not a care in the world and spinning in the front yard staring at the sky until I fell to the ground dizzy and laughing. If I attempted that now, honestly I would probably toss my cookies! Sometimes I wonder if my older sister and I were raised in different houses. Our parents both drank quite a bit, but they functioned, I don't think their drinking had any ill effects on us personally. I will say there were many times looking back that I think they showed poor judgement in their actions, but they loved us and we were fed and clothed. We weren't beat, (not to say we never got spankings because we did.) but we weren't abused physically. When you hear my sister tell it she talks about how dysfunctional they were. I dont remember things being all that bad. I can honestly say I don't think I have any emotional scars left by them or their drinking. When she starts talking about all this I just shrug my shoulders. I just find it odd how we both grew up in the same house and she sees things so differently then I do. Time to check my laundry and try to relax, might beback if I can't sleep. Until later hugs to you all. Me Post a comment in response: |
