Re the earth revolving..a dear friend who homeschools her granddaughters was recently explaining the difficulty she was having demonstrating with a globe (by walking in a circle around the 'sun', one of said granddaughters) the way the seasons change. For a while it was summer ALL the time ALL over the world. She finally got it right (axis problems:) I don't know if I explained this very well :) Children are such fun to have around. Enjoy them! I know you do :)Kerrihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18362584475435433892noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17440241.post-1138890730122763582006-02-03T00:32:00.000+10:002006-02-03T00:32:00.000+10:00No boys here...all girls, so I don't know.

For example he occasionally likes to have his toenails painted and if the girls are doing make overs, he's in there getting make up on! As he's only 9 I'm not that concerned, and actually, I think it's nice that they play together sometimes. Mostly though, they're all outside playing cricket after school!Flossyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15717035361638054877noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17440241.post-1138712149416219792006-01-31T22:55:00.000+10:002006-01-31T22:55:00.000+10:00That took me back to when my kids were young.

(Pity the "poor" mother and father whose children act totally opposite, i.e., boys loving dolls, dress-up, and make-up and girls loving all the manly stuff. Do they push their children to act more "normally"?)<BR/><BR/>Your kids are so cute and cuddly.

Although, my son loves to play with my daughter's dolls. I like to say that they're his girlfriends. :Pmanababieshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03972417886928074122noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17440241.post-1138683815425938942006-01-31T15:03:00.000+10:002006-01-31T15:03:00.000+10:00As a mother of a boy and two girls all I can say i...As a mother of a boy and two girls all I can say is...it's in the chromosomes.<BR/><BR/>Boys are boys and girls are girls. They think and look at things differently. <BR/>Boys will carry worms, bugs and rocks in their pockets and girls would simply say yuck to that. Girls will take good care of their dolls & stuffed animals while they play with them and a boy will take his stuffed animal and use it for batting practice.<BR/><BR/>I agree with you...there definately is a difference.Sandy Hatcher-Wallacehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15011307599473627922noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17440241.post-1138683388906626652006-01-31T14:56:00.000+10:002006-01-31T14:56:00.000+10:00I love this post, Jelly.

For example, he loves jewelry and begs me to buy it because it is shiny and he wants to keep it in his treasure chest.Heatherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03655262571287385309noreply@blogger.com
