I have been letting the television babysit today. I have mounds of laundry to do and quite honestly, my kids seem to have a bug (daycare baby included) that has them feeling just enough under the weather that they are laying around quietly and will only eat crackers and drink water (their choices). Anyhew..... I know I was a little cranky the last post about a certain show, but I do have to say not all are bad. For example, we are watching Fr@nklin right now and it has encouraged great talks with the two younger kids. They have been talking about how the one character (the name has escaped me!) wasn't very nice and was making the others make bad choices so that they would fit into his crowd. In the end the "others" decided that they didn't need to be in HIS crowd and if he wanted to be their friend, he would join their crowd and play nice.
I am constantly amazed at how I can tell my children the same thing 100 times over in 50 different ways and they just don't quite get it. However, when a teacher or one of their favorite shows says it, it must be true and they soak it up like little sponges!!!
Oh well.... at least they are getting it, right?!?!?
