Miss Kid just *totally* kicked my ass at checkers. She didn't just win, she Kicked. My. Ass.

Which I would be cool with if she wasn't rubbing my face in it.

oh, the simple joys of being a kid...

Aye, I was just thinking that myself. :)

the last time I played checkers with Raven in public, he danced around the Starbuck's chanting, "I won, I won, I won!" and doing the little shake-the-booty victory dance.

Smart-ass punks, our kids. How old is Raven?

Eight. **eloquent sigh**

But he's been a smart-ass from way back. At three, apparently he felt I was being a bit too bossy at one point because when I told him to do something he saluted and said, "Yes, sir, Mommy!"

We need to get these two together!

Are you sure about that? What if they gang up on us?

We can stick 'em in Elayna's room and barricade the door!

....giving them privacy to plot world domination....

Y'know, when Elayna was an infant, she was so puffy-cheeked and jowly that we called her Brain...

I learned early NOT to play Yatzhee with Katie unless I was prepared to lose horribly. At least she doesn't gloat :-)

[shadesong.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I'm trying to teach Elayna that gloating is bad form. :)

One of the biggest moments of my life was when I beat my grandfather at chess when I was 12. It only happened once in his life. And he was not the type to let one of us win.

Let her gloat..
