(2014) In our rush to have kids do everything earlier and faster than ever, I love that the true timetables of child development can not and will not be rushed, no matter what adult agendas may be. Seeing a group of ten year old boys having sleepovers and filling the bunk bed with stuffed animals makes me smile... This is exactly as it should be. Here's to letting kids be kids for as long as they can. The adult world with all it's worries and pressures will ensnare them soon enough, but for today, I'm just as glad to protect that elusive world of childhood for them as long as I can.
True and funny stories from the lighter side of raising my sons and daughter. As the Southern mama of this crew, I'm usually somewhere between "Bless your hearts!" and "Y'all act like you got some sense!" If we ever need to find our way home, we just follow the trail of red clay and glitter.
