maybe i just breed chatter boxes
i meant she has an older sister who talks quite well for her age and a mother who could talk under water with a mouthful of cement
yes, you breed chatterboxes - just like their Mum - and yes, you could talk under water with a mouth full of marbles - but that's not (always lol) a bad thing - it's a strength in all three of you! it may mean your girls are "destined" to work in fields later in life that appeal to those strengths - fields that rely on communication etc.


MM - it's kind of sad when our children teach us things isn't it
i don't think that's sad at all! i think it's an awesome thing that our kids can help us to learn new things. i think as we grow older and our focus shifts to work or general living things, we do tend to forget so much of what we learnt as children - it's fantastic to be able to re-discover those things with our children! For one thing, most of us grown ups are pretty jaded about aspects of our lives - to be able to rediscover and embrace the simple things from childhood is amazing. I am loving going back to basics with DD! if your girls teaching you how to be young again helps you all (them with their ability to communicate, you with embracing the inner child again), how can it possibly be sad?? i think the only sad thing is to pass up that opportunity because it may not come around again til your kids have kids - and it's not the same..
