Wii and Me

So we surrendered and the kids have their Wii.
Thing is Robbert is getting seriously addicted. He is up till 2 am (no kidding) to see if he can get onto the next level.
Caroline is doing pretty good at tennis which surprises me to be honest.

What doesn't surprise me that all kids burst out crying about 3 times a day coz their brother/sister is in the way/not paying attention/the remote doesn't respond they want/they simply are too late/early.

Who do you think they got it from?

Yes, so do I

See, i have this theory that growing up with a sibling (in my case my sister Thea who is the stern looking one Robbert is talking to in the pictures underneath) gives an average child so much aggrevation and social practice, by the time I was 15 i had had enough and could communicate with others normally. I also understood you won some and you lost some.

Robbert grew up as an only child. His sister died when he was 5 and since then he got what he wanted, the way he wanted.

First Laura tried to get some sense in him.
And now that noble task is mine.

So bear with me ladies & gentlemen and think of me next time Obama/Jan Peter needs someone with great diplomatic skills.

And modesty.
