How wonderful when all three of my kids are screaming to have SILENCE.
My house is full of noise and LOVE !!!
Typical Conversation when you have a hearing guest staying at your house :
J : "HONEY ! did you want to pick the baby up...he's been crying at your feet for 10 minutes ?" (smiling behind clenched teeth)
K : "YES DEEEEAAAR, and I WILLLLLL, but I'm BUSY cooking YOUR dinner." (ALSO smiling behind clenched teeth and EVIL eyes)
J : "FINE DEAR, but I already have TWO OTHER KIDS HANGING ON me !"
(did you feel the sarcasm?)
Conversation with a deaf guest.
(turn so deaf guest can't see clenched teeth and evil eyes)
J : "PICK HIM UP ALREADY....GOD, does he have to cry for 25 YEARS before you acknowledge him ?!"
K : "WHAT..and I'm NOT doing ANYTHING right now?"
J : "WHATEVER..."
K : "WHATEVER..."
(turn...roll eyes at deaf guest with award winning smile)
scene two...kinda nice right ? I thought so. The problem is...J and I are so comfortable around Toni..we have no problem doing the latter in front of her face :)
**update to explain**
Maybe nobody else feels like this when they have house guests. I personally get exhausted trying to be nice to my kids and wife ALL OF THE TIME. controlling my angry side :) I like to be able to yell and say it how it is to my wife. BUUUUUT maybe that's just me !
Something I learned. Yes Toni you do this. When talking to herself she talks in sign sitting at the table staring off in to space.
OH HELL...she's probably talking to me. ha ha
(Toni, now reading over my shoulder...rolls eyes with award winning smile)
Here are some pictures from our day so far because I KNOW that's all any one needs at this point any ways.
