Oh no, it's quite normal...

...for my siblings to be screaming bloody murder and swinging stuffed animals over their heads in the middle of the kitchen.
(i rest my case.)

...for me to pack up at nine thirty in the morning on a schoolday and hightail it to the barn for a few Phys. Ed. credit hours...plus some serious fun.

(this is Puzzle. she is awesome. i do not understand her one bit.)

...for my room to be entirely clean except for the eight or nine open textbooks and notebooks carpeting the floor.

...for various people to find booby trapped doors, missing shoelaces, lumpy pillows and ketchup filled sandwiches on April Fool's day.


...for me to spend my Easter afternoon with four guys I hadn't really met before, though they were seriously cute, and I even kissed one once or twice...
(I'm pretty sure this is my hot date's mother and grandmother. this picture is, of course, from 2005 or thereabouts. my mom's phone ran out of batteries and I was too lazy to find an actual picture of that hors...and he has three pasture mates who look exactly like him so I have no clue who he is anyway :)

...for my suitcase to be heavier than anyone else's come vacation...of course I need my Ancient History book, Mister!

...for several members of my family to wear their pajamas until noon bedtime.


...to see fistfights in the backseat of our twelve-passenger van.

...for one or more siblings to be grabbed by the collar for a photo shoot at any moment.


...for one or more members of the family to be reading, etc. in the unfinished basement storage room or the unenclosed hay shed for lack of some peace and quiet.
erhhm.

...for pumpkin muffins to be eaten for breakfast, lunch, second breakfast, elevensies, dinner, bedtime snack...etc.


...to see someone cooking their siblings for breakfast...OK, no.


...for one to hear random Broadway songs, Barney songs, VeggieTales songs, Star Wars spoof songs, TobyMac songs, made-up songs, and shouts of "For Narnia!" every several seconds.

...for one to hear, in the intervals between the above, Best Christmas Pageant Ever quotes, Ranger's Apprentice quotes, Narnia quotes, Hobbit quotes, Barbie, Lord of the Rings, and Star Wars quotes. At top volume. And completely in character.


...for one to see siblings supporting each other at ball games, birthday parties and performances.


...hugging  in public (even brother to sister!) :)

...praying and Bible verses for every occasion.
