I'm having a lot of fun with the kids lately. I'm always the one who plays with them and run around being silly, and the only thing that did any good before was just saying that "If you're going to act like that, I'm not going to play with you". This really disturbed them for a while, but I've been less and less interested in playing with them lately, as they're getting too big to be thrown around, and most of their "games" seem to include running very fast into stationary objects. Like walls, furniture or sitting people. That and yelling a lot. So now I get down face to face with them and hold up their fist and compare it to mine and get them to figure out who would be in more pain if this hitting people thing should go both ways. It’s just so much fun seeing the fear shine in their little eyes! J
