I have been married for 15 years. I was raised by my father. I have a brother. I have four sons, ages 1-14. And although their personalities vary, they have so many things in common...
Why can't they move the milk to see the mayo that's behind it?
Why do they half-a$$ everything and with a feeling of success because they found a "fast" way, albeit never thorough?
Why do they pee all over the bathroom? (There are 5 of them and one of me,so I have to put the lid back UP!)
Why are they satisfied with a to-do list that they never check off?
Why can my sons not cross a room without explosion sound- effects and the moves of Spiderman?
Why do they say about 50 words in a day?
Why do their clothes look so drab?
Why don't they show more compassion and consideration?
Why do they have to tap, or strumm, or shake their foot when sitting?
Why is it that when I turn my boys out to play, they run wide open like dogs let loose from pens? (We don't use sugar, high fructose corn syrup products such as Catsup,etc.)
Why do they love action movies?
I'm not a man hater. As a matter-of-fact, asking this question at age 36 is a little embarassing because I'm obviously slow on the up-take.
Maybe I shouldn't say "what's wrong", but rather, "what gives?"
Thank you.
