Kids of EB

[matt267 PE]

Mini-Ram would come over frequently when I was studying for the PE and mess with my books. I can't get him to hold his baby books but if I bring a book that I'm reading into the living room he'll flip through it endlessly.

That's how you turn him into an engineer.

My daughter was watching an SoPE class with me and she started drawing mass-haul diagrams. It was a proud dad moment.

Mini-Ram also started soccer this weekend. I didn't think they had soccer for his age group but my wife found one. Predictably he wasn't a fan. It was him and four other kids in the 2-3 year bracket. The other four vaguely paid attention and participated while Mini-Ram ran around the park like a maniac :/

yup. At that age, it's a herd of kids frantically kicking at a soccer ball and a couple kids aimlessly wondering around.

Did you pause and wipe the tear away?

Not quite sure how I feel about mini-Ram being one of the kids aimlessly wandering. We'll see how it goes when I take him for round 2 this Saturday.

No, I critiqued her and told her that she better improve or she'll never make it in life.

I made her wipe her own tears.

 

[matt267 PE]

The wanderers are the free spirit, hippy, thinkers.

My condolences.

Made me think of this scene where he puts the soap in his eye:

My condolences.

He keeps this up and he'll set the record for youngest to be disowned.

 

[matt267 PE]

can you ban your own kid?

 

[Ramnares P.E.]

If he doesn't get his head on straight we'll find out.

snickette must have partied hard yesterday at day care. she would have likely have slept through the night if I hadn't woken her up to eat. she crashed at 7 and was out cold when I woke her up just before 1.

 

[P-E]

Just ordered one of these, he'll thank me later when he's got the world's strongest legs:

Don't you have one of these already?

 

[Ramnares P.E.]

It's my wife's, can't use it on my son.

 

[MA_PE]

It's my wife's, can't use it on my son.

except the ball is a stove so she can cook.

My proud dad moments from yesterday's visit to the zoo.

There was a little girl who wasn't too thrilled to be on a ride and was on the verge of crying. My daughter spent the whole ride trying to make her feel better. At the end of the day, on our way out of the zoo, my daughter saw a little girl fall who was crying. My daughter approached her and asked of she was ok.

As an introverted engineer, I make it a point to stay the f*ck out of other peoples drama. But I was proud of my daughter for displaying such empathy.

 

[Supe]

On the bright side - with all that empathy, she won't be an engineer, so she'll probably partake in a career that's actually high-paying, fulfilling, and significantly less masochistic.

 

[matt267 PE]

... she won't be an engineer ...

What do you mean? This isn't even a possibility.

 

[Supe]

Have you ever even read Dilbert?

 

[matt267 PE]

Yes. Dilbert is a great documentary.

minisnick is going to get himself in trouble someday if he keeps up with the smart assedness.

I was feeding snickette this morning and told minisnick to get up and hurry, meaning get dressed, since he was still in his room doing something. He response, "I've been "up" since you turned my light on mom".
