Welcome to the SETI Cafe, Annie. Say hello, K-9. Thank you! And hello K9! Sorry have been filling in a form all evening whilst brain ranted "FORM! -> FIRE!" Would usually eat my jellybabies feet first - but think I'll start with the other end now. :) (sort of new to all this square bracket stuff so going to leave them alone this time - hope that okay?) |

Well that was a dung heap of a development. Last time I stand on the arm of the couch. Been telling my children not to for years. Now I'm wearing it I see why. If I cast my mind back to the opening comment of this thread... I don't think I have long... |

The trouble with kid is that it puts you off having families :-) And some young women around here wonder why I'm not interested in them even after explaining that I will not, under any circumstances, put myself through a 3rd generation of them. :-O Cheers. |

I do sometimes wonder what life would have been like if I hadn't had any... might have joined greenpeace... harpooned by a Japanese whaling ship is as far as I get after that :) |

I don't wonder about that, but I do know that the 7 I have is quite enough for 1 lifetime and it's now time for a bit of peace and quiet. ;-) Cheers. |

Seven! Just a BIT of peace and quiet? I think we have a master of the understatement in our midst :) |

By shrinking in stature beside my children, my ability to strike them dumb with disbelief has inflated exponentially! Welcome to the forums anniet Best Wishes from Byron Vancouver Canada |

I do think all kids should be born at the age of 5 .... ;-)) Would solve all overpopulation issues. No woman in her right mind would put herself through that :) |

Sigh... puberty awaits for my oldest, only ten but she's already a teenager, mum!! I chose my battles carefully. With walls mostly. :) |

Sigh... puberty awaits for my oldest, only ten but she's already a teenager, mum!! Ah yes, I remember when ours were 10, going on 16. Don't worry, another 10 or 15 years and they get over it. |

Don't worry, another 10 or 15 years and they get over it. What don't knock you off, makes you stronger they say. I only wish I had the wealth to have had five more, and daughters, just think how beautiful a little girl that looked like LSM would have been. |
