No T.V.

We've fallen into a terrible rut. Sean, 4, is addicted to television and video games. Sure, he can operate without them, but why would he? Luke, 9, is getting addicted too. And by addicted I mean, just hangs out with the television naturally, as if it were an appendage.

So, today I told Stan that tomorrow is the day. We're confiscating, unplugging, packing away, etc. We'll allow some video playing, but it will be rationed. I just want to see what my kids will do without those options! Maybe the sun will touch their skin...maybe they'll read a book...maybe they will argue and pummel each other black and blue, I don't know. You can be sure I'll report on it if it's interesting.

Hmmm, what should we do about the Gameboys....
