You scrap and yell at each other AND wage little quiet manipulative wars! <BR/><BR/>I am happy you will be in the finger Lakes this summer. I am sad I won't be there too. I will try to get up for a quick visit because I need more lake smells and would really like to see the progress on the house, maybe even help out. <BR/><BR/>You should also spend a weekend down this way too. I know we are trying to work something out with M. for a visit at some point, and it could also be fun for both of you to come together with or without the boys, but if you need a mini mommy vacation the door is open for a girls' weekend too.Laura L.https://www.blogger.com/profile/09392255332469212351noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4431174338782485222.post-21055798618802861012008-02-10T08:25:00.000-08:002008-02-10T08:25:00.000-08:00I agree, trust me as a middle school teacher, boys...I agree, trust me as a middle school teacher, boys are much more active and physical but the girls are just plain mean, snotty and vindictive! I have to say both are frustrating in their own ways, I think with teenagers you just can't win,(maybe this is why I am so scared to have children, because I am constantly surrounded by teenagers! but as my mother-in-law keeps telling me, they don't come out at age 13!) but there are always these glimmers and moments of seeing what awesome adults they are going to be and then I feel better about the total and complete lack of self-control they have now!Sarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09903513942718478342noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4431174338782485222.post-43490124494625536602008-02-10T08:06:00.000-08:002008-02-10T08:06:00.000-08:00That is so true...Their teenage years would be the...That is so true...Their teenage years would be the end of me...Elitahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11241595754038870322noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4431174338782485222.post-67297054056228722062008-02-10T07:01:00.000-08:002008-02-10T07:01:00.000-08:00Yay!

(I know it's too far to doula... that was just a last-ditched attempt to get more of you!)<BR/><BR/>I'm sorry to hear the boys are in a fighting phase, but it won't last forever. And remember, if you had girls they might not be screaming, but the might be conducting subterfuge wars of cruelty and ego teardown that would cause years of insecurity and psychological instability! Yay boys!Tina Posthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12658680379398227047noreply@blogger.com
