Things might be flashy and nice to look at, but it's a fact that kids will make the best of what they have if given the chance.<br /><br />On my Facebook, someone commented that sometimes giving in and buying a Pez dispenser is the difference between relative calm and an endless tantrum.

How? Easy, I just said, "Wow, everything here is completely unnecessary. My kids will probably sleep in dresser drawers and play with balls of twine."<br /><br />Hyperbole? Yeah, but not by much. My favorite toys are paper, pens, string, sticks, and my hands. <br /><br />My kids will never be cold or hungry, but they will also never be bored. Only boring people get bored.Sarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03369986438107297442noreply@blogger.com
