Our world... the 21st century... video games... movies... ok, I don't really have anything wrong with a mild case of any of those... but I'm starting to realize where this kind of stuff takes a person... like our neighbor kids. Andrew is freaked out of a chicken following him... a donkey might bite... ok what the world are you thinking?! Yah a donkey can bite- if you stick your hand in his mouth, but he won't walk up to you and bite! And a chicken! Its not like they're a close relative of Tyrannosaurus rex!! (If at all! ;)) Its a chicken!! A scared bird... a bird scared of birds smaller than themselves... they can't possibly harm a human!! And then the girls... why can't they play, they are the mom and the doll's the newborn, at home? Why can't they have a real 'grown-up' purse, a 'cell-phone'? And pretend they are going shopping with their best friend? Instead peer pressure makes them play with Barbie dolls and everything else the world has to offer... the horror movies... the make believe... ok, maybe not even half of this made sense... just some of my musings the last couple days... I just really have to wonder what kids would do without a iPod or a phone? No YouTube... no angry birds... (or is that outdated too?!) Do these kids even know what card games are?! Just wondering! :)

21st Century Kids
For some of y'all this isn't the first time you've heard me say this...
Our world... the 21st century... video games... movies... ok, I don't really have anything wrong with a mild case of any of those... but I'm starting to realize where this kind of stuff takes a person... like our neighbor kids.
