We're reading a great series called The Five Ancestors. It is a kung fu series. My son loves it.Christyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14920326845870515381noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3392533299815100922.post-86044197113318215862009-07-02T16:34:36.056-06:002009-07-02T16:34:36.056-06:00I know how they are...I had 5 of my own, and my 8 ...I know how they are...I had 5 of my own, and my 8 yo grandson was living with us until recently.<br />With a farm as wonderful as yours sounds, I would think they could find plenty to do. Is there any wood lying around? They could try to put a fort together. Or we used to hang blankets from the clothes line and make a tent to play in. Collect eggs. Feed the animals.

The thing that gets me is that when she does visit us, I'm also the bad person because I'm the one telling her to quit texting, get off the computer and doooo something! I know how you feel.small farm girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01485314092236803411noreply@blogger.com
