Merry Christmas, all. It still is quiet, as I wait for the children to wake up and open their presents. This will be the last Christmas with all the children in the house . . . our oldest daughter leaves for the Navy in a few months. And the twins are rapidly leaving childhood behind and becoming full fledged teenagers. If you have children, enjoy the time you're given to have them with you. It goes fast.

So true.  Two of our three are now out of state in grad school.  All three children are home now, but I'm not sure how many more years they will all be home at the same time.

The best of luck to your daughter.  One of my daughter's close friends just finished her four years in the Navy and now is using benefits to attend college.

Boy and a girl. He (they) just got an x-box 360. I've been holding out against too many electronic games, but resistance is futile. Well, at least he was very excited, and his first question on NCAA football 2012 was, "is Denard on it?"

and at the end of the family roster (only one younger than they).  have held out completely against video games and the kids are unconcerned.  easier done when there's no t.v. hook-up except during football season, and that only for a sporadic football viewing.  t.v. goes off in t-minus 8 days...

 

interesting to hear about all the twins and children of you all.   sounds like a well-rounded group posting here.   good for you all.

But I love hearing about others kids, and twins especially! I also REALLY limit the electronics. I have one drawn to technology (the computer mostly), and the other just loves books, drawing and sports. We have a Wii because I won it at work, but have played it about 4 times over the past 3-4 years. They do get real mood changes with too much "screen time". They even notice it when I've pointed it out. So while they get computer time for school projects, their tv is limited to occasional Tom and Jerry cartoons on YouTube, and shows on animal planet. Oh, and of ourselves they watch Michigan football, but that has helped make them very well rounded(read: brainwashed).

I've been awake for two hours watching the sun rise over the lake. A rare late start this Christmas due to some overnight illness with the kids- nothing serious. I just hope they let me play with the new iPads, and give me their hand- me- down Mac laptops. No tech debates this blessed day, please.
