Lorre, you are a far better poet than you think. Your poetry is thought-provoking. Not a bad thing! ~R

  Thanks Red. I especially like the fact they are all getting along. Well, I really mean the big guys. Who fights with a baby?

LIS — I keep telling the under-aged they will regret trying to grow up so fast. Adulthood isn’t all it’s cracked up to be. If it looks like brotherly love — watch out — something’s brewing under the water. Lol.

  Oh, don’t I know it.
  I’m glad to see that LIS going around. I checked and it is in the internet dictionary or whatever, but I never see it used.

  I’m so glad I only have one girl. I don’t think I could handle the girl drama in my home.

Things were much simpler when we were children, weren’t they?

  Most definately, but we (or at least I) didn’t realize how easy it was.

I really liked this one. As I get further away from it, it leaves me a little sad, and I’m not altogether sure why.

  Thanks for the warning. So….I guess you have Peter Pan syndrome. When you grow up, watch out, but of course……..it can provide a different level of fun…..but not so easy (damn bills)

One of teh best parts of growing up is getting to act like a kid again.

  That’s true and also when my kids think I’m the most crazy. Go figure.
