Its easy to be the bigger person.

Some say that it can be hard to be the bigger person when your kids are acting out. I have never seen it that way. For example, the other day my oldest was teasing my youngest, so to show I was the bigger person I pushed* them both to the ground so theyd know Im bigger than them (by a good 4 feet) and that I allways win!



*this story is complete fiction. I do not support or condone in part or in whole the pushing or shoving of children or anyone in genral that is smaller than you. ; p

So a quick follow up to the previous post. If the map ever looses its pull it may be time to pull out the big guns. All you need is a plastic cup, a popcicle stick, 2 sjeets of paper, string, glue sisors and crayons or construction paper (grey and black).
1-Draw and color a grey hook and cut it out. Attach it to the popcicle stick and stick it in the cup. Walla! you have a pirates hook!
2-Draw the front of a pirate hat and attach it to apaper hoop sized to your childs head for the hat. (this can be substituted with a bandanna)
3-Cut out a paper eyepatch and attach it to the string. BOOM! You have a pirate!
And if your too lazy for all that just print these. I havent checked sizes so you may need to tinker with the size in Gimp or paint. For those who are wondering what this "Gimp" I keep talking about is. It is a free photo editing program comparable to photo shop! Just click HERE to get it.
