Our birthday traditions
2008-05-09 00:37:00 We seem to have a birthday tradition that sorta came about by itself! Each time it’s someone’s birthday, we all gather on DH and my bed to open gifts.

Time to pitch in, family!
2008-05-02 08:27:00 Overall, the kids are good helpers around the house. They keep their rooms tidy most of the time, take the rubbish out, help with putting away the laundry, and help with washing up after dinner. But they do sometimes argue about whose turn it is and who done it yesterday and who didn’t do it.
