This from a pastor (and, I'm finding, not all that unique to pastors. Actually, they seem to be more competitive than normal, sweaty males. Do you find this to be so?). Thanks for the well-turned phrases that describe such seemingly boorish behavior -- because it is, in fact, for us (praise God).Emommyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00948690298244727347noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2566055197730422533.post-23490679700672194892011-02-05T08:51:44.702-06:002011-02-05T08:51:44.702-06:00Great post :D.

I have come to understand that the hooliganism of my first three children is to be tempered by occasion-appropriate civility rather than stamped out. :P This understanding has been greatly aided by my husband, who reminds me that he and his brother spent the vast majority of their formative years trying to shame, best, and generally murder one another, and are now quite good friends (with, of course, that competitive edge, which would no doubt be even more pronounced had they more time in each other's company). <br /><br />I need these reminders frequently, since at 6, 4, and 2, the hooliganism is quite infrequently tempered by the civility.Reb.

The men have to give us SOMETHING to talk about while we watch them (or scald our feet baking barefoot).lisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16371999768381631125noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2566055197730422533.post-1744739361183732222011-02-04T13:01:58.163-06:002011-02-04T13:01:58.163-06:00wow, this explains SO muchwow, this explains SO muchMelrosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08439670225934244188noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2566055197730422533.post-80237527249057400292011-02-04T09:18:10.148-06:002011-02-04T09:18:10.148-06:00I was thinking of one such game just the other day...I was thinking of one such game just the other day, remembering that there was once a time when the men were all outside playing it while we were all inside talking about the births of our most recent babies. <br /><br />Yes, yes.
