The whole incident was funny, but yes, Dad wanted us to sled on a different hill - more for the younger ones' sake (to keep from hearing the things public school kids say maybe, IDK).

…you have to do everything (including stand on your head) to drag your siblings attention away from the TV at the restaurant!

Or when you warn your brothers by making innocuous comments like "I like their flooring here" when walking through certain sections of the mall.

That's creative. I can imagine it, right now.

…when people ask what you like to do, and then are shocked when reading is on the list and watching TV isn't.
…when you have to listen to music while you do your school because your little sibs are listening to Adventures in Odyssey all day.

We had a fun "homeschooler" moment this morning. All us kids were down stairs waiting for mom and dad to come down (they were talking upstairs). We had a couple helium balloons in the house, so we started experimenting with them. We figured out how much weight to add so that the balloon floated about a foot away from the ceiling, so we decided to send a balloon message upstairs to mom and dad! It didn't really work very well, because after we added a message the weight was all messed up and we had to try to adjust it, but we were kept busy for like half an hour. Who needs TV??!

You should have heard us cheering when we got it to the weight at which the balloon would neither touch the ceiling or touch the ground. "Up, up, go up! No, go back down! Max! Stop blowing on it from underneath! That's cheating!"

Yep! I only have 3 younger sibs ;) And there are only six kids in my family!

People will say, "Wow, how many kids to do you?!"

My parents will sometimes say, "Oh, only six."

And they're like, "ONLY six!!?"

I'd love to have more siblings, but my mom hasn't been able to have more than five (one of of us six is adopted). She's sadly had a lot of miscarriages though :(

We hardly EVER go to the mall, but it's true that there's a lot of immodesty in the displays. Wow, I never thought of studying the floor tiles as being a good diversion ;D

Hey, look over here, this tile is chipped! XD
