I envisioned that we would be at the zoo today (didn't realize that at least two of my kids no longer like the zoo). I pictured us picnicking at a park (they aren't interested in leaving the house). So, here I sit blogging and wondering how to parent these kids I don't know any more.
They did a few chores, we got the clothes started, but after that, they desire nothing better than to sit at home doing video games and reading. I am pretty sure I can make them go, but would that be fun? I think not!!! I might get out a little bit by myself and walk at the local botanical gardens. But, I want to be with them. I hope we can agree on some kind of outing. Maybe I can bribe them with getting ice cream (do my kids still like THAT?)......
