GOOSE!
Who remembers that one from childhood?
My son had soccer practice tonight. Which meant I had 4 other kids to keep occupied while he was practicing. The coach's wife also has 2 little girls that play while their sister practices.
My boys are, well, boys. They are rough, rambunctious, gruff, horseplaying boys. They barrel rush one another and slam into each other. They play tag, and when they get to one another they whack the other to tag them. My 2 year old, especially, is a huge linebacker of a baby.
Well, apparently these two little girls just aren't used to roughhousing. And Tommy was scaring the crap out of the younger of the two while they were chasing each other around.
Sissy wanted to try and play 'red light, green light', but the little ones just didn't understand. So I suggested 'duck, duck, goose'. It worked out really well! The kids were having a ball!
In the middle of a round, soccer practice was over, and wouldn't you know it, the soccer players all came over to the circle as well! They all played for a few minutes, while the other moms and I giggled at the situation.
Finally, one of the moms told their boy it was time for them to go. He didn't want to leave, so I had to tell my kids it was time to go in order to break it up.
I'm so proud of myself! :) Score one for my ole broke down memory!
