I think I understand why Grandparents often act so crazy when it comes to Grandchildren. They know what parents don’t know, often until it’s too late …that you “blink” and your kids aren’t kids anymore, “blink” again, and they’re gone. Worse, many kids spend their teen years rebelling against their parents, and if I’m as abrasive and confrontational with my children as I am with the rest of the people in my life, my “quality time” is even more fleeting.
I’m going to fix this personal character flaw, I swear it.
AGING: I now have a six-year-old. No doubt about it, having her in my life has made me a better person. I hope someday I can explain to her how she made that happen. She scored 7 goals in her soccer game this past Saturday. I can’t stop telling people.
CREATING: I also have a 4 1/2 year old, and a tw0-and-a-half year old. Oh …and a one-and-a-half year old. That youngest is spunkybean, still going strong after 18-months in this world. I hope yer reading it on a regular basis. We’ve got all sorts of crazy awesome stuff. Every Monday we post a View-Do List, giving you a road-map of all the awesome television that awaits you each week. Super-Writer, EJ Feddes, also recaps Celebrity Apprentice and Heroes each week, but he’s best known for his Lost recaps – I’ll admit, I hang on his every word this show. Then, of course, we’ve got incredible recaps of Dancing with the Stars and American Idol- that American Idol recap guy (aka “Me) is hilarious. Ya know, I could go on and on. Instead, why don’t you just check out spunkybean and bookmark it or add it to your RSS reader …or Facebook “friend” spunkybean.
BIRTHING: I mentioned my 6-, 4 1/2-, 2 1/2-, and 1 1/2-year-olds …well, how about my “infant.” Stick close. The Non-Celebirty Fit Club inaugural post is coming soon. It’s about 2/3rds written. At least two dozen people have expressed interest in knowing more. Well …you will know more. And as G.I. Joe was apt to point out, “knowing is half the battle.”
I know what you’re saying …”this post wasn’t funny, at all. It was barely interesting.” Well, you’re right. Sometimes that happens. My pop-up blocker blocked hilarity …I’m checking the settings. Blog atcha again, soon.
