It has been an interesting two years "babysitting" two boys now 8 and 10 years old. Now I generally watch them two nights a week from 4-11:30 pm which involves homework, dinner, activities, friends and bedtime.
I have learned alot from the boys. I didn't know that 1. THERE IS AN ANNOYING VIDEO ABOUT A KID NAMED FRED WHO TALKS LIKE ALVIN THE CHIPMUNK 2. WRESTLING IS STILL ON TV...NOW IT IS WWE NOT WWF 3. THERE IS A WEBSITE CALLED CLUB PENGUIN WHICH HOLDS ATTENTION FOR LONGER THAN 5 MINUTES 4. THAT EVERY WRESTLER HAS A THEME SONG THAT I AM SUPPOSED REMEMBER FOR A WEEKLY
TEST 5. KIDS STILL PLAY MONOPOLY AND SORRY 6. I CANNOT SUBTRACT OR ADD LIKE A THIRD GRADER (NEW MATH) 7. THERE ARE SHOWS LIKE SUITE LIFE AND HANNAH MONTANA ON CABLE 8. I THROW LIKE A GIRL 9. THERE ARE TEACHER WEBSITES WITH ACTIVITIES FOR STUDENTS 9. TWO BOYS COULD MAKE SO MUCH NOISE 10. PARENTAL CONTROL OVER CERTAIN WEBSITES IS KEY.
I have learned alot of new things but there are other things that remain the same.
1. EVERYONE WILL HAVE A BAD DAY AT SCHOOL 2. TESTS WITH BAD GRADES STILL GET HIDDEN OR RIPPED UP 3. THERE IS ALWAYS A FRIEND WHO COMES OVER TO YOUR HOUSE JUST TO BEG FOR SNACKS 4. SOMETIMES YOU DON'T GET INVITED TO A "FRIEND'S " BIRTHDAY PARTY 5. OLDER BROTHERS ARE A PAIN 6. YOUNGER BROTHERS ARE ANNOYING 7. NEIGHBORHOOD PARENTS CAN BE CATTY 8. HOMEWORK IS SOMETIMES LEFT AT SCHOOL 9. THERE IS NOTHING LIKE PLAYING OUTSIDE AFTER A LONG DAY AT SCHOOL
10. AT THE END OF THE DAY IT IS JUST YOU AND YOUR BROTHER,
