On nights when my husband can’t make it home before my 8 yr old is in bed, we have a “girls night”. I pick up something incredibly easy to prepare for dinner (and usually not the most healthy), then we do what ever she wants: paint our nails, watch TV, snuggle, whatever.

My kids like a game called “Psycho Mom”. Pretty much I get to hide from them, scare them when they come around a dark corner and chase them around until I dissapear into hiding again. Sometimes we turn off the lights, other times it is impromptu. Sometimes I talk in a robot voice so I am devoid of emotion. It might be traumatizing and could cause some kids nightmares, but honestly the kids love it and beg me to play it. Who knew?!

What a beautifully simple idea! I love it! Thanks. Bonding is usually cuddling in bed, reading stories, but I’m not chillin’. Now I can!

Today it’s being sick with my eldest LOL
We bond over books, which isn’t that abnormal. And food – baking. I bake, they eat. LOL

Cooking shows on the Food Network. Giada is the kids’ (4&5) favorite.

I cherish any moment my 16 year old would choose to hang out on the couch with me after dinner…usually, it would include a Discovery show of some sort. Mythbusters, Man vs Wild, Gold Rush–I don’t care. I’m just so grateful to share a laugh with him!

My kids want me to join the Wheel Watchers club too…maybe I’ll join you there, Carrie–or see you on the Mexican Riveria!

I just checked on my phone. I’ll let our IT guy know, but if you keep the text all the way over to the left–not ideal, I realize–it stays put. Just fyi.

Sorry about that, Amy…we thought we’d fixed all the subscribe issues. I’ll tell our tech guy stat. Thanks for letting us know.

We are Wheel Watchers, too!! In fact, my kids convinced me to sign up for the Wheel Watchers Club so we can try to win the extra cash. Like you, it’s a time for us to all veg out, and for me to impress my kids when I blurt out the answer, or we all yell the (obvious) answer at the TV and the contestant never hears us.
P.S. I have fond memories of watching Solid Gold with my grandma.
