Loan Ranger, ROFL!
Sorry, BBK, but
Don't I add a little too much water, and it's now too thin. It's dripping everywhere, and instead of helping, Tink is LICKING the drips off the house. I'm trying not to get mad, I know she has no control, but for crying out loud, this is supposed to be a fun project, what the heck? Why is it so difficult? I should have given up when the first one had clumpy frosting...
I finally tell her that we are done, and I see her grab a handful of candy (the 6 year old gumdrops) and stuff them in her mouth.
Actually, this is funny.
And it has nothing to do with-ADHD or anything. It's the nature of the beast--both gingerbread houses and kids. :smirk:
I hate making them--you hold the edges together for hrs, and then the min. your back is turned, it falls apart.
I tried to go canoeing with-my kids a few yrs ago with-similar results. No, the canoe didn't fall apart, I did. I was furious. If I said "left," the kids went "Right." They pushed while I pulled. We couldn't even get the thing to the water with-o an argument.
I go alone now.
How about if you go for an advent calendar instead? But don't put all the candy in at once. Hide it and put one in every day. Just a thought. :wink:
