Remember when you were a kid?

Ok, I have to tell you that I had a flashback today from when I was a kid. I remember fighting all the time with my brother, he always started it ;), and our mom had an amazing talent for blocking us out. Like, she would not hear anything that was happening.

Well I have learned that I have that talent also. I am trying to think of how you get to that point. I think that it is because my kids, who are 20 months apart (just like my brother and I am), fight ALL THE TIME. I swear if one says the sky is blue the other will say that it is green. Hannah tells Jacob to say something, he says it over and over and over, then she gets mad and yells because he is saying to many times. It goes on all day long, I am not going to even get into the fights over toys, Oh my goodness.

So I think out of servival mode you have to learn to start blocking things out. Sometimes I have people looking at me like "are you going to do anything?" and I don't even notice that it is going on.

I really did not even know or expect it to start this soon. I can tell that they truly love each other and they have their moments where they are sweet to each other, but I think they really love to fight. They do it on purpose.

I just pray that when they are older they are as close as me and my brother. We may have fought alot as kids, but as adults, he is my best friend and I would not know what to do without him.

Hopefully tomorrow will be a better day.
