  1. I like your sense of humor :) I also find it interesting that such a small piece of writing can tell us so much about a particular household--not only its day-to-day operations but also its morals. This is a household in which "kids will be kids" (hence, the notes about not starting races with the mowers and being on cell phones during church) but also a household in which there's also a lot of necessary skills being learned.
