I just hope to teach him to take turns every now and then. :)<BR/><BR/>It is nice to have a few older relatives around. Liz and I are older parents, and our one remaining parent between us is in a nursing home in another state. So it's nice that we have two older uncles and this aunt around. They're too old to help with any childcare, but it's nice that the kids get to relate with people of another generation.<BR/><BR/>Finally, you've given me an idea, Daisy. A science video series featuring Buddy Boy as the narrator. He's so enthusiastic when he's telling you about something! He'd be a natural.Club 166https://www.blogger.com/profile/01816977079856902634noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5821799658844915805.post-22872581051452083442007-03-30T03:40:00.000+01:002007-03-30T03:40:00.000+01:00Buddy boy is a kid after my own heart.

I have some control over it, but it's hard. Don't put me in a room with women discussing nail polish. I will steer the conversation to volcanoes... no, to dogs or to autism, or psychology.... or Chinese stuff, or maybe art.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
