This post is for my children. It is not a completely original idea see http://heartkeepercommonroom.blogspot.com/.
This is my list of things I don't think I should have had to say to my children:
#1 Dropping kittens from the second floor stairs is not good for the kittens or the van they land on.
#2 Leaning over the washer while sitting on the dryer can get you very wet and scare your mother.
#3 Do not take your three year old brother to play in the bean field even if I said to. That was sarcasm.
#4 Laundry baskets are not cars for riding down a flight of stairs to hit the door at the bottom.
#5 If you get something caught in a tree, having your sister throw a rock at it and while you stand under the same tree is a good way to get a hole in your head but not a good way to get your nunchucks back.
#6 Baby kittens do not like to be carried several at a time in a book bag.
#7 Holding your siblings by their feet over the stairs is not a good way to get them to cooperate with you.
#8 Burying your sister in the playground rocks can result in a doctors visit for removal of said rocks from her ear.
#9 If you speed while driving you will get caught.
#10 If you get arrested you will get out the same way you got in. (But I love you just the same)
Names were withheld because you know who you are.

#1 - to test the theory that a cat always lands on it's feet .. it was an experiment. Just be thankful we didn't use Morgan as our control study.
#2 - but it gave you a very good object lesson on how everyone makes mistakes. lol
#3 - Jake always was a bit slow on the uptake...
#4 - We knew they weren't cars .. more like hover crafts, or rockets!
#5 - Key words here would be "having your sister" .. This shows tremendous amounts of character. Because I did it out of compassion for their plight .. and restrained from chucking rocks at their heads many other times.
#7 - I beg to differ .. she listened quite well after that.
#9 - Wait .. which sibling got a speeding ticket? Jake's never had one, I've never had one .. I can only think of dad, actually.. lol
ok so what did Jake lose his license for? Whatever it was that was my example. lol
