Vacation for Children ???

Here is a family story:
What possessed me to let my kid go on vacation. Why? Really, a vacation for children - I must be crazy!!!

vacation for childrenOr maybe it's because I miss my little girl that I now think sending her on this New York summer vacation was - is nuts. It's been only one day and my son keeps crying, asking where is his big sister. I know she'll have fun - it's what I want for her. But really - "vacation for children" man how I miss having the whole summer off. I remember reading a post by cityencounters.blogspot.com : on how New Yorks need a reality check with their kids.

I thought it was strange for NY city folks to have Wine & dine parties for toddlers - but here I am sending my kid on a summer vacation. really - how hard did she have it this school year.?

The funny thing was - when we took her to the airport we were taking pictures like if we were tourist. i mean really - we live here, why are we talking pictures of the airport I've seen over a million times.
The great thing thought is the photos my daughter sent me of the cockpit [ the plane cockpit] - I can't believe they actually let her in with all the security they've put up on planes now. SEE PHOTOS BELOW

The sad and funny thing was all the calls my little girl was getting from friends who were going to miss her. I mean one girl even broke down in tears over the phone [ imagine if she was there - would have to drag her off the tarmac ]....

Ofcourse - she also received a call from a boy - I found that interesting - no nothings slips by me.

In Poor taste - you be the judge

In poor taste? My significant other saw a video clip [ part of a video ] I was creating and said that it was done in “poor taste” on my part. Well, I’ll let you be the judge of the complete work. The goal behind this video was to help me talk about the “Effects Movies can have on children”. You see, we let our kids watch just about anything on TV, videos, internet or in the movies. I don’t mean you personally or I myself - I personally try very hard to shield my kids from a lot of programming on TV. But I will admit that America as a whole - parents don’t really concern themselves with what their kids watch. I also admit that there are times I let them watch things they really shouldn’t. Not because it’s bad but because it can effect them adversely. I know this will sound silly and it’s embarrassing to me - but I a grown adult can’t seem to take a shower or use the bathroom without wondering if someone is just on the other side of that shower curtain. Really, Psycho [ Hitchcock's o

Disney World Savings Secrets -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Almost every family loves Disney World....but high gas prices and the sour economy threaten to dash the vacation plans of many Disney fans this year. Lisa shared some of her secrets with me... beginning with visiting during off season. Off Season Deals From August 24 to September 20th, you can eat free, if you stay at a Disney Resort. Lisa says she tries to take advantage of "the end of august and beginning of september, because of their free dining plan."
