Your hints for the assignments look intriguing. I hope to be able to participate in each and every one. Perhaps, you can convince some our Plurk friends to join us.

Having six little brothers will do that to you.<br /><br />My dad has a hard time NOT paying. My husband wants to pay sometimes, but the only way we seem to pull it off is by cooking at home for them - and still they ask what they can bring!Sayrehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16350593991157139017noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2957618362044424921.post-39837911561770583672011-03-28T09:49:24.357-05:002011-03-28T09:49:24.357-05:00Great post!

We're still in transition with our married kids on the paying for dinner thing--at least paying for their own :)<br /><br />Many of us don't seem to remember any "advice" and yet all we have to do is look and listen to ourselves. I liked the difference between what your mom said and what you heard. I never thought of it that way :)<br /><br />Thanks for hosting next month. Look forward to it!Good Companyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09199803488145525441noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2957618362044424921.post-9893279067758202132011-03-28T09:35:22.026-05:002011-03-28T09:35:22.026-05:00First of all, thanks for taking on the prestigious...First of all, thanks for taking on the prestigious job of hosting Mon Funday. Hopefully, I can join in here and there along the way.<br />Second of all, OMGoodess ! You wanderwrite like I do. All over the place with your thoughts. Scary thing is, I think I kept up with what you were saying.<br />Together, my husband and I have 7 kids.

Sounds like your dad had a sense of humor. My mother also was a yeller--not what you'd call a softy. Interesting question--how is she with her grand children?<br /><br />Thanks for taking on Fun Monday hosting for April. I'll be back to see what you have in store for us.Fayehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10227397761350236459noreply@blogger.com
