WOW did you put me back into the childhood years. I am missing being a kid after that post! It is great to hear these kids laughing at night and yes on Saturday mornings… It is even better that Jeff is always will to pick up a glove or bat and join right in the game….

What is it about giving someone bunny ears in a photo? We often worry they’ll ruin it, but never consider that they can make the photo great! Thanks for the reminder of how fun and silliness is such an important part of life (and not just during childhood, either!).

Wow, Mere, that’s a fantastic photo! I’m going to try to start up a Capture the Flag game this weekend around my neighborhood in DC. And please wish Jeff a happy 8th birthday!

What a fun and inspirational post! With all the anxiety in the news lately about financial problems, reflecting on the games we played as kids is a breath of fresh air. You and your future family will have loads of fun together if that’s your vision for your lives.

Great Job Mere – makes me wish I was outside playing a game of Kick the Can (while drinking a few cans) enjoying the weather rather than sitting in my office behind a computer.

As I sit here plugged into the computer not to find a fun craft idea or Halloween costume online with my daughter, but to work from home while I’m “off on a personal day” I long not only for my own stress free childhood memories but more time in the day to make new memories with my little girl.

So many of us say “you don’t have kids, you don’t understand.” But often it’s someone without kids who can look in on our worlds with an objective perspective and see just how beautiful they are and how the simple pleasures of laughing with our little ones can bring such joy to our lives and theirs.

Days without cell phones? Laptops? Yes please! No meetings, deadlines? It must be Christmas! Thanks for this much needed reminder that the grind, and all the stress that goes with it, will always be there, but the silliness of an almost 8 year old who still loves to hold her mama’s hand won’t last forever.

I don’t know…I believe that everything that happens in our lives shapes who we are. Our memories define us and I’m not sure I’d mess with it.
That being said, I do wish that we had gone more places as a kid. Not anywhere expensive necessarily, just taken trips together as a family.
