Jem and the Holograms!  Wow that's a flashback!  

Thanks, I had a lot of fun making it.  It hasn't been used in quite some time, but when their younger cousins come over its definitely a big hit!  I try to do as many little memory making things as I can for the whole family.  I also take the time with each one (hard with 5) to do something one on one.  Maybe it's just playing a game, reading a book, teaching them a magic trick or just talking about our day, but I know things like that go a long way in building who they will become.

Oh, it absolutely will!!!

One of my fondest childhood memories was Mom reading a bedtime story to my sisters and myself,
and Dad would be a one-man show, acting it out.

Dad as the "Big Bad Wolf" huffing and puffing to blow our bedroom door down, was HILARIOUS.
(he was good at slapstick and self-deprecating humour)

Even Mom would be wetting herself, laughing.

And yet, it was just a bedtime story, with a little effort thrown in.

LOL I do the same things

Anything to get those belly laughs and smiles is worth it.
