My kid just challenged me to a water baloon war.
I kicked his juvenile little ass. He forgot that I was a star pitcher for the state-champ softball team in highschool. (Do I sound like Al Bundy bragging about my glory days? ) :D

He's drenched, and I'm dry. Serves him right. :D

2. Jeebuz!
Poor kid, I bet he'll be traumatized for life at the ass-kicking you gave him.

5. I'm often a pathetic "let the kids win" type.
If I can I like to trounce them early, but give them an opening to get the upper hand and make a dramatic come-back. Makes things a lot of fun.

Except for board and card games. I think it's because they are often good enough at those that I'm fighting to survive at all.

7. Loved the days when
I could still lay waste to my boys. They are gone now so enjoy it while you can and remember, he will not forget this. Just sayin.

Have fun, it is way too cold here this week to do anything with water outside!

11. Tap water is too cold any time of year!
:D It's pretty warm here, but that water is absolutely frigid. :scared:

Yes, we pal around a lot. He's got a dirtbike, and I drive the old go-cart, and we play hide-and-seek in the field.

He's my best buddy. The tomboy in my from my youth has re-emerged. With absolutely no shame. :D

12. I never stopped
being a tomboy and can't say that I ever wanted to be any other way. I am jealous since my boys are gone. I lost my best buddies! :cry: Now it is my doggies that play with me, the horses are WAY too big to "play" with.

14. LOL! Pretty bad, isn't it.
I guess it's better than "my grandma kicked my ass in a water balloon fight," though. :D
