Obsessions

I know I have a long road ahead of me full of little obsessions as the girls grow. I know they'll come and go, and I'm TRYING to take the latest with a grain of salt.

Oh. My. Goodness.

It's hard!

What's the problem?? Oh, let me tell you.
I have to listen to lengthy conversations about the newest websites, the latest addition to her EcoPet collection (some kind of eco-friendly link on the PBS website where kids can create their own animal, environment, etc.), what shade of eyeshadow she put on the dress up Barbie AND I have to review and approve each and every e-story submission. Because, one of these times, it's "gonna be on TV, Mom!!"

But all this pales in comparison to the Webkins. Please save me from the Webkins. I won't go into detail on this one, but let me just tell you...when she works it into the dinnertime prayer....
Oh yeah.

Tonight-"and Dear God, thank you for letting my Daddy have lots of work, so he can save money to buy me a Webkins."

I can't even imagine the days to come of shopping, cell phones, and BOYS!! Oh My!
If I don't laugh, I'll cry....!

I am afraid you are right!!! Seems like there are more gadgets and such than when J was growing up. And they change so fast. And with the girls so close together you will most likely be buying two of most things. By the time Miss E is ready for an update it will be obsolete for Miss A. I love hearing their prayers. They are so sweet. Love, Grammy
