I love discovering what my kids consider special.
So much for expensive train sets...a cast off PDA will do, poker chips, animal cards, a fuzzy chick, marbles, race cars...the essentials.
The kids have been begging for a pet.
Bub's sad version of a pet is almost enough to break me down.
Almost....but have I shared my view of pets?
There is no way I am taking care of anything that doesn't contribute to the family. So, maybe someday we will have chickens, a cow, a goat...possibly a big dog if I get too scared to go on walks or Darin starts going on business trips.
No cats. No fish. No hamsters. We have a zoo pass if we want to look at animals.
I will most likely eat these words someday.
Kids have ways of wearing you down.
