Kids These Days
So the kids are on Spring Break. So that means I have all 4 of them today.
As an attempt to get them out of my hair, and to get them some D.. I told them to go play in the backyard for an hour. Its a slightly sunny day, enough to warm the skin, but still cool, all you need is a sweater or a light coat. Can't be that bad right? They're kids..
10 minutes later they are bugging me to come back inside. To do what? Watch cartoons and play video games.
I told them to just hang out outside for an hour. But sheesh, they're acting like I'm torturing them. One of them was laying at the back door screaming and crying. They've spent about 6 months inside constantly, and on their first "outing" they don't last 10 minutes.
My brother used to lock me outside the house in the middle of summer in Texas for half the day, and I was fine with that.
