It’s no secret that I believe my kids truly rock. I mean I'm not
even trying to brag.... it's just I am around them every day and while most

Now I know what you’re thinking... sure, all of this sounds like
they would be slightly awesome.... but you would really have no clue. What little
girls do you know at the age of 6 have read the lord of the rings books and
consider the trilogy to be her favorite movies? I mean let’s face it, she drug
us to The Hobbit the moment it hit theaters. How many 8 & 5 year olds
consider building a fort and watching black and white films like the wolfman a
great thing to do on a Saturday night? And have you ever stayed up until 6 am
eating bowls of cereal and playing super mario brothers 2 until you beat the
game? Does your five year old beg you to make asparagus for a snack? I'm going
to guess probably not.... And none of this even really begins to touch on how
big their personalities truly are... I mean talk about laughs for days. Even I
am often shocked by the things they say and it takes a lot to shock me. Here is
what I will say though. For being 5 and 8 my kids are truly unique and if you
were ever luck enough to meet them I am certain they would rock your socks off.
